Gounod: Faust Blu-ray (The Royal Opera) 2019

Gounod’s masterpiece Faust is given the grandest of Royal Opera stagings in David McVicar’s richly layered and theatrically exuberant production, availble here on blu-ray. The drama moved to Second Empire Paris, spectacular sets and costumes, and extensive dance. Michael Fabiano as a seductively witty Faust, Erwin Schrott as a devilish Méphistophélès and Irina Lungu as a passionate Marguerite are joined by the Royal Opera Chorus and a cast of Royal Opera favourites. Dan Ettinger conducts the Orchestra of the Royal Opera House in Gounod’s gloriously tuneful score.
