 Opera as a total artistic expression,.....delightfullSep 12, 2007
In which moment of life "the opera" concept took away the DANCE?
Seven years ago, in Cancun, a french friend recomended me to enjoy this opera, he was in a live performance in Paris. Now I can say it is one of my favorites operas. The production is espectacular, the music just wonderfull.

OUT OF 120 DVD, THIS IS THE MOST BEAUTIFULJul 23, 2007
I have been checking out library opera DVDs for over a year with the hope that I can find another production of equal quality to this one. So far only a few have come close. Most have serious staging problems often called Eurotrash.
If I was not a fan of one of the singers (Malin Hartelius) I might have missed out on this wonderful production as Rameau is not a composer that I collect.
To all those people who wished that the dance was Baroque, let me say that most people would be bored by baroque dance, after a few minutes. This is a brilliant blending of modern dance and baroque music.

 Musically rushedJul 10, 2007
Great to see this staged, but the music is so terribly driven - fast, even rushed - to the extreme. So much of the beautiful detail is lost. Much prefer to listen to Bruggen.

Now this is more like it!Feb 09, 2007
This is far and away the best Rameau DVD out there. Though the production is modern, it stays within the Barouqe style and is not a distraction from the music. The tempi are lively and slow arias are touching. The premise of the opera is original by even today's standard and offers the viewer a good idea of what a baroque opera prouction would have looked like in the 1730's while making full use of modern technology. Good extras on the DVD and very exciting music, of course!
