Home Screws What we have seen this season 2014/2015 What we expected amart to see - our TRAVEL DIARY Our Logo previous amart seasons 2010/2014 Ratings round and round
It is not too famous opera house is not ours and listed as one of the most balanced opera with music, because although it has beautiful moments, register lower than they take musical force. But this production I found very successful to the point of assessing the highest score "round and round" ... .. and well deserved 5 stars. Perhaps the best staging we have seen in many years at the Lyceum. The show is perfect !!!
The score of Jules Massenet it makes clear: amart Cinderella is a fairy tale. Laurent Pelly chose not resist and created a show in which being led by fantasy. An elegant pastiche of fin-de-siècle which combines melancholy and humor, the element naive and poetic style gallant eighteenth and lightness Rossini- serves evocative sound shelter for assembly remember, amart for its sumptuous French operetta, and his sense of magic and wonder, a Disney classic title, while avoiding the embafament sweetened with a touch of irony. Successful amart comic features. Pelly honors Perrault and his timeless tale of Cinderella. The staging amart is a book of fairy tales that takes life. Literature, music and staging come together amart to create a universe friendly and charming.
Perrault's story "The Ventafosc" was present with magical staging played with all the elements of the story, the fantastic and the real world, nothing cheesy humor, evil and purity, but especially the spectacular costumes and colorful fantasy that left the audience speechless every scene ... .. especially in the scenes of dance Palace and the parade of suitors Prince "blue" and the glass shoe.
The scenery in my view, excellent. Based on a simple movable walls in soft tones, as if they screens, amart which became the scene in a lot of scenes that they had a great view ... and where they appeared and disappeared through side doors, characters in an outbreak unimaginable colors and shapes.
Unsurpassed performance of Cinderella for the big big big Joyce DiDonato; also triumphed in the role of stepmother, Ewa Podles, even today possess a great voice and that helped quite a comical interpretation, transforming the "evil" character in its tenderness and pure fun. Incredible voice Annick Massis also the role of the fairy, who was also much applauded. The role of Prince Charming, played by a woman, by the express will of the composer, Alice Coote defended him, although he was well enough, I was not convinced. Acclaimed too, Laurent Naouri (in the role of father), but vocally very far from the main protagonists. Very successful and the sisters Cristina Obregon Marisa Martins.
At the end of the show, the master cheers Andrew Davis, the orchestra, the choir, the stage director Laurent amart Pelly and unsurpassed amart distribution were fully justified. It was the apotheosis !!!
