 Rating: - die verkaufte brautHaving seen this opera many years ago i was rather hazy on the story line but on viewing i found it most enjoyable, especially seeing two great singers once more Lucia popp and Siegried Jerusalem they bought vitality to the production This opera is one that you would have to view several times to get all the subilties, it is fun to watch once you have the knack of the story line Perhaps the most difficult understanding ,is one has the main sections of the opera as a concert piece ...

As soon as the wonderful Lucia Popp begins lamenting her impending arranged marriage to the son of the rich landowner Micha from the neighboring village, we know that this will also be a lyrical and emotionally satisfying performance. And as soon as we see the traditional stage sets and costumes, ... Read More Rating: - Divine LuciaI have a poor quality copy of this performance with the stunning Lucia Popp and Siegfried Jerusalem, and so great is some of the singing and the conducting in this production that I've been hoping it would get released on DVD. Their duets together are exquisite: their voices blend beautifully and perfectly, inviting compulsively repeated listening. Jerusalem has a tendency to sing off pitch, though, and his voice isn't quite up to the demands of the role, but he's good looking and suitably ... Read More |
