Movie Reviews of Verdi - Oberto

Movie Review: enjoyable
Summary: 4 Stars

As you know, this was Verdi's first opera. First performed in 1839 at Teatro alla Scala it was moderately successful and was revived a number of times during the next three years. Today there are few opportunities to see Oberto performed so one might ask whether it is a strong enough work to still entertain and whether this production does it justice. I would answer both questions with a resounding "yes". The singing is never less than adequate, the choral numbers being particularly rousing and the staging quite appropriate to the drama at hand. Oberto is a rather old fashioned opera where character after character takes center stage and stands and delivers. Numbers are frequently followed by well earned applause. A pleasant night at the opera.
