Movie Reviews of Britten: Billy Budd
Movie Review: Excellent DVD
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a rare recording and a difficult one to find. It arrived in excellent condition and has titles which are necessary, even though the opera is in English. It was written for Peter Pears, who stars in it.
Summary of Britten: Billy Budd
The first film of any Britten opera. The only version to star Peter Pears, who originated the role of Captain Vere. A cast of distinguished British singers, under the baton of a young Charles Mackerras.Art House & International DVD Video
