Britten: Peter Grimes Blu-ray (La Scala)

Notify me when this product is available:

The Italian and international press were unanimous in their praise for Peter Grimes at La Scala, which revived the tradition of Britten's operas on the lyric stages of Italy. A top British cast was marshalled by the baton of Robin Ticciati. Richard Jones's production focuses on the fisherman as the outsider in a brutal and brutalised 1980s society, cut off by mutual suspicion and misunderstanding: an unforgettable production of a 20th-cnetury operatic masterpiece that never loses its power.
