Movie Reviews of Verdi - La Traviata / Bonfadelli, Piper, Bruson, Ricci, Peebo, Leveroni, Domingo, Busseto
Movie Review: Simply beautiful!!
Summary: 5 Stars
There are only a few DVDs of Traviata and I own this one and Solti/Gheorghiu version at Covent Garden. In short, they are both 'to die for'. In my opinion, DVDs are the next best thing to the San Francisco, or for that matter, any other Opera House. Bonfadelli does not sing as well as Angela but the acting is wonderful and both have their own interesting interpretations of VV. Watching Domingo conduct was also a treat albeit he is no Solti. Zefferelli's set is excellent (as always) as was the set at Covent Garden. These are absolute musts for any opera DVD collection.
Summary of Verdi - La Traviata / Bonfadelli, Piper, Bruson, Ricci, Peebo, Leveroni, Domingo, Busseto
"I want new, magnificent, beautiful, varied and bold, extremely bold subjects, with new forms and yet lending themselves to be set to music. At the moment I am in Venice working on the Dame aux cam?lias, which I may call Traviata; a subject of our time. No one else would have done this because of its morals, the time and a thousand other ridiculous scruples - I am enjoying myself immensely." This quotation from one of Verdi's letters from 1853 brings to mind a fact which is rarely rememberedtoday in view of the familiarity with his arguably most famous opera, namely that the subject of Traviata was quite new and disturbing, as the characters of the opera were not princes, heroes or magical beings of the distant past but persons of doubtful morals from everyday-life of the present.
