Far better it was, than even the Met's performance a couple weeks ago. And who was that woman from Moscow? [Please, please download the file so you'll have it permanently.]

I recorded them both. Both MET and the Boston Lyrick’s performances are different, both have own moments. MET’s orchestra was more dramatic and less shallow then Boston but the Shubert Theatre’s pit never was a good sounding place. The Violetta was sung by Moscow-born Dina Kuznetsova. She lives somewhere in Midwest and I know little about her.  About the downloading the file. I recorded it 24/88. Would you like to have the entire few gigs of raw file or do you want me to downsample it for you to 16/44 PCM? I did find the ways to burn nowadays quite good sounding CDs, still the 24/88 would be the best.

I too was in anticipation of the Tristan, notably because of Domingo. Nor was I disappointed... in Domingo! The rest of it, I could leave. Alas WHRB had the compressor on so there's no telling how much my dislike was due to its robbing the music of dynamic expression.

Yes, I did record it but I was not able to listen it during the broadcast. This morning I played it and was under impression that they broadcast it not from CD but from MP3 copy. They did it with Onegin a few months ago. What the jerks!

But Romy, you missed a Boston broadcast highlight: The BSO, Raphael Fruehbeck de Burgos,  Gil Shahan and Mozart -- both Friday and Saturday. The Serenade that opened the program was absolutely the best Mozart this Mozart-resistant orchestra has even turned out.

Well, now you are being a jerk. I did not know bout it and how difficult for you would be shot me an email informing me about the upcoming live broadcast? That would enable me to record it.
