Movie Reviews of Handel - Rodelinda / Antonacci, Scholl, Streit, Chiummo, Winter, Stefanowicz, Christie, Glyndebourne Opera

Movie Review: Outstanding Production
Summary: 5 Stars

This one is a total success. The update to the 1930's and a slightly fascist regime works so well it's a wonder it wasn't done this way in Handel's time. The women are regally and gorgeously costumed. Beautifully and imaginitively directed. Everyone acts almost as well as they sing, but the singing requires much more of them and they all acquit themselves admirably. It's one difficult aria after another for all concerned and Handel characterizes each character within the music so very well. Delightedly recommended.

Summary of Handel - Rodelinda / Antonacci, Scholl, Streit, Chiummo, Winter, Stefanowicz, Christie, Glyndebourne Opera

Jean-Marie Vill?gier's stylish production of Rodelinda sets Handel's tale of royal exile and fidelity in the silent movie era. The composer's ravishing music is perfectly set off by the sophisticated glamour and visual daring that characterized the birth of cinema. With Anna Caterina Antonacci as Rodelinda, Kurt Streit as Grimoaldo, Umberto Chiummo as Garibaldo, Andreas Scholl as Bertarido. Glyndebourne Festival Opera..

"Jean-Marie Vill?gier's brilliant, unnerving production ... A great show - don't miss it" THE GUARDIAN
