Dorothea Roschmann, Felicity Palmer

Farao Records, 2005

A great performance
I agree for the most part with the reviewer from Carlisle, PA. Having had a chance also to view and listen to the Glyndebourne DVD published by Kultur, I definitely prefer the Munich opera performance. Why? There are 2 main reasons: First and perhaps most importantly, ...

TDK, 2007

A TRULY SPECTACULAR AND MAGICAL FLUTE
This DVD instantly goes to the the top of the list of great DVD MAGIC FLUTES. This is going to be an easy review because everyone and everything is just right: 1) Tamino-Piotr Beczala is a new tenor to me. He has a sound that has a little bit of Fritz Wunderlich in ...

Mozart - Die Zauberflote (The Magic Flute) [HD DVD]

Simon Keenlyside, Dorothea Roschmann

BBC / Opus Arte, 2007

It All Works Together on this Disk
Like all works of art, opera is the sum of its parts. Opera joins music, both sung and played, acting, both physical and verbal, costumes, settings, and lighting. A video disk of an opera adds camera work and editing. What I found remarkable about this disk is that ...

Mozart - Le Nozze di Figaro

Anna Netrebko, Dorothea Roschmann

Deutsche Grammophon, 2007

Brilliant and mesmerizing
This is an intense and unblinking look at human relationships and the social frames in which they are set. It is about our desperate determination to fit into such frames and to uphold them, against our deepest yearnings to transcend them. There are lovelier and ...
