stellar
This is the best DVD of Idomeneo I've seen. The Regies are Ursel and Karl-Ernst Herrmann. I think this production actually premiered a few years back with a different cast (have seen photos of it with Kasarova and Roeschmann), and this is a revival. Anyhow, it is a minimalistic conceptual staging that works remarkably well in telling the story. Stage-front is extended forward to enclose the ...

Tchaikovsky - Eugene Onegin / Fleming, Vargas, Hvorostovsky, Gergiev, Carsen [Metropolitan Opera 2007]

The best DVD version of Eugene Onegin
Robert Carsen's production is lovely with a successful blend of conservative and new ideas. I know this opera for years, and have quite a few recordings of it. But never before did its closing scene move me, as in this performance. This is mostly because of the singing and acting intensity of Hvorostovsky and Fleming. Highly recommended.

Verdi - Don Carlos

Ramon Vargas, Iano Tamar

TDK, 2007

Verdi with controversy but with depth
A very powerful performance this. It uses every note Verdi originally wrote for the Paris production including the ballet music. It is a very good performance with Skovhus and Miles standing out from a fine cast. There are better performances on the other DVDs but this one can pass the test and it has other virtues going for it. The controversy lies as it does in the regie production. ...

a very pleasant surprise
The Opera Gala: Live from Baden-Baden I had read good reviews of this concert and was familiar with all of the singers except Elina Garanca, but i was still surprised by the quality of this program. Anna Netrebco is, as usual, very good until her encore when she kicks off her shoes and brings the house down. Few concerts are worth more than a viewing or two - this is an exception. It's well ...
