* {{Narm}}: The 1961 Leinsdorf recording ends with Richard Tucker (Rodolfo) blubbering so hysterically it almost sounds like he's LaughingMad, which, as with Ewan McGregor's InelegantBlubbering in ''Film/MoulinRouge'', potentially kills the mood.

**In 1966, this opera was the last one staged at the Metropolitan Opera House on Broadway and 39th Street, soon to be razed once the company had moved to the new house at Lincoln Center. During the performance, the Colline, Jerome Hines, gave a touching tribute to the old house by changing the lyrics of "Vecchia zimarra" (Farewell, old coat) to "Vecchio teatro" (Farewell, old theater).

** The aria "Sono andanti" in the 2005 production at Orange, with Roberto Alagna as Rodolfo and Angela Gheorghiu as Mimi, is especially tear-jerking. The way Alagna punctuated his cries of "Mimi!" with sobs as he just clung onto Marcello is heartwrenching, and the way he just cradled Gheorghiu is especially moving. It helped that Alagna and Gheorghiu were married at the time, making it all the more real and painful.
