Mozart DVD Set (Glyndebourne)

Notify me when this product is available:

These three facets in the prism of Mozart’s operatic genius shine in Glyndebourne’s typically thought-provoking productions, featuring skilled singer–actors buoyed by the Orchestra of the Age of Enlightenment’s luminous period sound. Nicholas Hytner’s beautiful, ‘shockingly traditional’ production of Così fan tutte frames artful performances teased by Iván Fischer from an outstanding international cast of convincing young lovers. Michael Grandage’s staging of Le nozze di Figaro is Glyndebourne’s seventh in a line stretching back to the company’s 1934 début production. Marshalled by the ‘ideal pacing’ of Robin Ticciati, a youthful cast of principals has ‘no weak link’ and ‘looks gorgeous’ (The Sunday Times). David McVicar’s Die Entführung aus dem Serail offers a ‘mesmerising, sensitive ... outstanding’ portrayal of Enlightenment-era fascination
with the East that is both ‘exquisitely acted and sung’ (The Guardian), and Ticciati leads the OAE through a restored, authentic rendition of the critical score with ‘lovely fizz’ and ‘poignant gravitas’. (The Independent)

Mozart ina box

Glyndebourne versions are usually good value ( William Christie' Fairy Queen) and this set has a bonus, an opportunity to conrast period with modern, I know there's a pressure to find new interpretations to keep performers 'interested',but when the original version is an acknowledged gem why detract from its 'completeness with a modern or out of period set and costumes? Its a needless distraction and an insult to Mozarts genius. D A
