Produktspecificatie
Les vêpres siciliennes, like the similarly epic Don Carlos, was conceived as a grand opéra for Paris
and is driven by the tensions between private passions and public politics.
Originally set during Sicily`s 13th-century uprising against French rule, in Christof Loy`s staging for the Netherlands Opera
the action is transposed to a 1940s world of sudden violence and shadowy double-dealing. Imaginatively cast and idiomatically conducted,
the performance presents this magnificent score in its entirety, including the allegorical ballet The Four Seasons.
Press Reviews
"Alejandro Marco-Buhrmeister succeeds in evoking our sympathy in `Au sein de la puissance`. The lovers sing tenderly; but what stands out in their Act 2 duet is some exquisite phrasing in the strings...There are a few cuts, including the cabaletta of Procida`s `Et toi, Palerme`, but it`s a worthwhile addition to the modest number of French grand operas on DVD.
" (Gramophone)
"The Netherlands Opera Chorus...remains one of the most musically and dramatically responsive among major companies.
