Rigoletto - Semperoper Dresden
"Rigoletto (2008) Staatsoper Dresden. Verdi / Italian"
Originally released in 2008. Rigoletto - Semperoper Dresden is a music film. directed by Andreas Morell.
Starring Juan Diego Flórez, Željko Lučić, and Diana Damrau
Synopsis
Both Florez and Diana Damrau brought their bel canto expertise and superb vocalism to the service of Verdi's music. The Rigoletto, Zeljko Lucic, ran the gamut from tenderness with his Gilda to thundering fury with everyone else. I also liked the production. At first, when Rigoletto was putting on his grease paint during the overture, I was afraid that it might be a typical "Euro-trash" production, with a bit of warmed over I Pagliacci. But the sets and dramatic action really served the music and libretto. I would have to say that I came to a deeper understanding and appreciation of the story and characters as a result of seeing this performance.
