Standout Aspects

Acting

Domingo's Otello: volcanic, vulnerable, devastating.

Direction

Moshinsky's stark, claustrophobic Cyprus setting.

Production

Solti's 80th birthday: legendary forces assembled.

Best for:Solo: Pour wine, cry alone, no shame.·Theater: Royal Opera House magic preserved.·Rewatch: Catch new vocal details every time.
Heads up:Emotional: Ends in suffocation and suicide, obviously.·Triggers: Racial slurs in libretto; Otello called 'Moor' throughout.
