Background: Roberto Alagna and Angela Gheorghiu appeared together in L'elisir d'amore at the Lyon National Opera for just two performances - staged specially to facilitate this recording. They captivated the audience, perfectly cast as the true-hearted peasant Nemorino and the rich, beautiful and coquettish Adina, whose love he finally wins.

Also included, as a generous bonus feature, is Derek Bailey's 52 minute film Love Potion, presenting a fascinating 'behind-the-scenes' look at the staging, rehearsal and recording of this celebrated production of L'elisir d'amore. Featuring interviews with Angela Gheorghiu and Roberto Alagna, as well as extensive rehearsal footage, it offers a unique insight into the world of opera recording. Love Potion is an English-language film.
