Stadschouwburg Amsterdam, 14 September, 1973
These were terrible Norma performances in Amsterdam. Cristina finally sang her
most famous role in Amsterdam with Adalgisa which could absolutely not handle
the part technically. The tenor was replaced every performance. Furthermore, the
stage image was poor and the costumes so bad that it was a shame for the diva.
Perhaps the biggest disappointment for Cristina Deutekom in her homeland. The
recording is messy and we left out the great duet Adelgisa / Pollione to prevent
further irritation. However, a unique recording with Cristina Deutekom.
