Movie Reviews of Kurt Weill - The Rise and Fall of the City of Mahagonny / Peter Zadek · Denis Russell Davies - G. Jones · C. Malfitano · J. Hadley - Salzburg Festival 1997
Movie Review: ....for if the version with Teresa Stratas isn't released, I tell you we must die...
Summary: 5 Stars
Despite the obscenely socialist/existential "theology" behind "Mahagonny," still...it's my very favorite opera, even more entertaining than "Dialogues Of The Carmelites" or "Aida." And that w***ehouse piano solo at the very beginning of Act 15, still, thirty years after initially experiencing "Mahagonny," makes me completely STOP what I'm concurrently "doing" and just LISTEN. Kind of like "Gimme Shelter"..."Birdland"...or "Sitting On The Dock Of The Bay," for a couple of examples. I'll neither reiterate nor disagree with what any of my fellow reviwers have mentioned here - except I reckon I'll have to wait till Judgement Day or shortly thereafter to hear "Mahagonny" with Teresa Stratas as Jenny: the DEFINITIVE Jenny!
