George Gershwin - Porgy & Bess / Trevor Nunn · Sir Simon Rattle · W. White · C. Haymon · Glyndebourne Opera 119 reviews Willard White, Cynthia Haymon
EMI Classics, 2001
Gershwin's masterpiece receives a performance worthy of it.
+ The classic DVD currently on the market - a film of the opera performance done at England's Glynnebourne, always well done there + George Gershwin - Porky & Bess
"Porgy & Bess" is George Gershwin's masterpiece and one of the 10 greatest operas ever written (see my list on Amazon). For a long time (and even now ... Leonard Maltin's review, e.g.) condescendingly called a "folk opera" (translation: "the Met won't do it"). Bollocks. True, Gershwin himself ...
