- Synopsis:
These three facets in the prism of Mozarts operatic genius shine in Glyndebournes typically thought-provoking productions, featuring skilled singeractors buoyed by the Orchestra of the Age of Enlightenments luminous period sound. Nicholas Hytners beautiful, shockingly traditional production of Così fan tutte frames artful performances teased by Iván Fischer from an outstanding international cast of convincing young lovers. Michael Grandages staging of Le nozze di Figaro is Glyndebournes seventh in a line stretching back to the companys 1934 début production. Marshalled by the ideal pacing of Robin Ticciati, a youthful cast of principals has no weak link and looks gorgeous. David McVicars Die Entführung aus dem Serail offers a mesmerising, sensitive...outstanding portrayal of Enlightenment-era fascination with the East that is both exquisitely acted and sung, and Ticciati leads the OAE through a restored, authentic rendition of the critical score with lovely fizz and poignant gravitas. Recorded in true Surround Sound. 'Glorious orchestral playing and magnificent singing under Iván Fischer' (Cosi fan tutte). Finely conducted by Robin Ticciati, McVicars production of Mozarts Turkish comedy is a vocal and visual treat. - Studio:
