I heard Carol Neblett do the NYC Opera premiere and she did a lovely job in Frank Corsaro's wild production. There was also a great Baritone aria with Dominic Cossa, but the opera as a whole was treacly and thin.

Which opera are you referring to?

Die Todte Stadt

Callas does a haunting rendition. Several years ago La Wally was revived in Europe with a review in Opera News. The avalanche seemed to have ended that revival too.
