Brilliant interpretation/traditional sets and costumes January 3, 2008
Hazel Smith (Sudbury, Ontario, Canada)
5 out of 5 found this review helpful
La Traviata is one of my favourite operas, not least because there are so many memorable arias. Renee Fleming is my favourite lyric soprano with a stunning instrument and glorious technique; she's also a very good actress. I found her performance to be beautifully nuanced in all three acts. Rolando Villazon is a great Alfredo and they worked well together. Seeing and hearing Renato Bruson at this stage of his career is a treat. I have several versions of La Traviata and love them all. This one has glorious singing coupled with very traditional sets and costumes. This is a version for those people who find it difficult to accept modern stagings. I personally can enjoy both types as long as it's not eurotrash. A good modern version is the one from Salzburg 2005 with Anna Netrebko and Rolando Villazon, staged by Willy Decker and conducted by Carlo Rizzi. There are not as many nuances, but there's certainly electricity. Buy them both. Variety is the spice of life. Enjoy!!!!
