Captured LIVE at The Royal Opera House, London on Wed, Sept 28, 2011. Gounod’s famous opera charts the downfall of Faust, the philosopher tempted by the demon Méphistophélès, as well as the terrible consequences of his tainted love for the innocent Marguerite. All with insight and theatrical bravura against the background of Paris. Angela Gheorghiu stars (as Marguerite) along with Vittorio Grigolo, René Pape, and Dimitri Hvorostovsky. 3 hr 22 min including one intermission
