Movie Reviews of Geatano Donizetti - Don Pasquale / Ciofi, Alaimo, Shankle, Giossi, Suisse Romande, Pido (Grand Theatre de Geneve 2007)
Movie Review: Original staging and production is highly entertaining...Five Stars!!!!!
Summary: 4 Stars
This updated production of Don Pasquale is refreshingly original, with a colorful set and entertaining use of the chorus. Simone Alaimo's great comic performance as Don Pasquale is the highlight of the show. Marzio Giossi's novel and expressive Dr. Malatesta, a psychiatrist, also earns high marks.
The first time I watched this, I thought Patrizia Ciofi's voice sounded washed out and I gave this opera only four stars. After viewing it a second time, I changed my mind--too late as I can't give it another star. She sounded her usual clear and powerful self, with nothing held back.
Norman Shankle as Ernesto sang well enough but he was the least animated actor of the production, dwarfed by the comic antics of the other players.
I love this opera and this production does it full justice. Recommended!!!
