Synopsis:: Show moreShow less
The production of this video - which involved top-ranking artists to direct, perform and provide the musical accompaniment - was recorded in 1989 at the Opera National de Lyon. The outstanding quality of the production is evidenced not least by the recording made as part of the series of live performances and rated by Gramophone magazine as record of the year in 1990. Directed by Louis Erlo (assisted by Alain Maratrat, and with set design by Jacques Rapp and costumes by Ferdinando Bruni), the wit and speed of the opera come across strongly in the transfer of the medium of video (video direction by Jean-Francois Jung).
Kent Nagano directs the performance led by Gabriel Bacquier (the King of Clubs), Jean-Luc Viala (the Prince), Georges Gautier (Truffaldino), Catherine Dubosc (Ninetta) and a host of other outstanding artists.
