1.Wagner - Tristan Und Isolde (Barenboim) starring: Ian Storey, Waltraud Meier, Michelle DeYoung, Gerd Grochowski, Matti Salminen directed by: Patrizia Carmine November 10, 2008
Average Rating: >>More Details
Wagner - Tristan Und Isolde (Barenboim) For me this production by Pierre Chereau of Tristan has no weaknesses and is a great achievement. Ian Storey (Tristan) is an English singer working on the continent who was suddenly catapulted into the role of Tristan (he had never seen the opera) at La Scala in one of the most important productions of recent years, learning the role in an incredibly short period. The result is a very impressive performance, although up until the Act 11 Love duet it feels somewhat a work in progress, however from then on he finds his feet and all is fine. Waltaud Meier is at the top of her game, and with Matti Salinen as King Marke and a fine Kuwenal in Gerd Grochkowski, and a very ... Read More:

I enjoyed this DVD - It's good visually, I thought as well as good singing and music.

5.Die Entfuhrung Aus Dem Serail - Mozart [1980] starring: Ryland Davies, Valerie Masterson, Lillian Watson, Willard White, Glyndebourne Chorus August 01, 2005

As far as I know, this production has not ever been released before in any format, and that's a shame because this is a very nice 'Abduction,' with excellent singing, exceptional orchestral playing, and good visual and dramatic values. It also gives us a chance to see the work of some singers early in their careers. Most important of these, to me, is to see and hear Willard White, that wonderful Jamaican basso, as Osmin. He darn near steals the show with his characterization, immensely likable and funny. The only thing missing from his performance is rock-solid low notes; he really has to reach for those low Cs and Ds. As for the ladies in the cast, they could hardly be bettered. Valerie Masterson is a delicious, if slightly reserved ... Read More:
