Movie Reviews of Rameau - Les Paladins / Piau, Naouri, Lehtipuu, d'Oustrac, Piolino, Schirrer, Gonzalez-Toroi, Christie, Paris Opera
Movie Review: Baroque that Rocks!
Summary: 5 Stars
Rameau's glorious comédie lyrique is given a spectacular and high energy multi-media staging here, with brilliant use of rich visual images projected onto the stage, showing actors morphing into all sorts of creatures, ranging from rabbits and elephants, to snakes and tigers. You can barely see where the real cast end and their projected doubles begin, as dancers and singers disappear and reappear in the most incredible forms.
The music is joyful, wild and witty and, under the baton of supreme Rameau interpreter William Christie, Les Arts Florissants and the virtuoso cast dazzle us with their superb singing and extraordinarily exciting dancing and movement. Standouts in the cast are the gorgeous Topi Lehtipuu as Atis; the hilariously quirky performance of Orcan by Laurent Naouri; Sandrine Piau's Nérine; and the delightful Argie of Stéphanie d'Oustrac.
The icing on the cake of José Montalvo's captivating production of this opera-ballet are the dancers of the Compagnie Montalvo-Hervieu who fill the stage with vibrant energy in the form of ballet, hip-hop and cloud-dancing! I should mention there is quite a bit of very tasteful, and sometimes amusing, nudity on this DVD...
