Sergej Aleksashkin (bass), Renee Fleming (soprano), Dmitri Hvorostovsky (baritone), Ramon Vargas (tenor) & Elena Zaremba (mezzo-soprano) Orchestra and Chorus of the Metropolitan Opera, Valery Gergiev Set & Costume Design - Michael Levine Lighting - Jean Kalman Choreographer - Serge Bennatham This is a star-led performance of one of the most popular romantic operas with the unrivalled pairing of Fleming and Hvorostovsky as the doomed lovers. Their onstage chemistry, emotional singing and outstanding acting make this a truly special and unique production. Thousands of movie-goers watched this production live in cinemas across Europe and the US in February 2007, when the production and the singing of the central characters met with great critical acclaim. Valery Gergiev, Russia's greatest living conductor, leads Russia's classic opera, with a thrilling account of Tchaikovsky's most intense and passionate score. Robert Carsen, described in the International Herald Tribune as 'one of the most sought-after stage directors on the operatic scene' creates an evocative and striking staging. Anne Midgette, reviewing this production in the New York Times, wrote, 'this remains one of the most extraordinarily beautiful stagings I've seen.' |
