![]() Rating: - Rossini Heavy MetalI knew only Semiramide and Rossini comic operas,which I rated as preferable,as did Beethoven. I did not fetch more a Moses.I just wanted to know on stage Netrebko s affortunated husband. Then I have searched for any opera with Erwin Schrott,who looks like a Brazilian man.Well, fate brought me to this pharaonic "oratorio",which recalls Israel in Egypt and Aida,since there is a unhappy love between an Egyptian prince and a slave smashed by ethnic problems and policy.Of course, musical similarities ... Read More Rating: - Grand Grand OperaRossini reworked his Italian "Mose in Egitto" of 1818 into the French Grand Opera "Moise et Pharaon" in 1827 and produced a Grand operatic spectacle. Though some of the intimacy of "Mose" is lost, the overall effect of larger than life dramatic forces at work is overwelming. The La Scala production is right on target. The chorus does itself proud. I replay time and again the great choruses. WOW, what sound, what force, what excitement! The soloist are also very good. The Moise of Abdrazakov is commanding ... Read More Rating: - Surprisingly dull!I picked this up at the library and was delighted to see Erwin Schrott in the cast. He is a fabulous baritone and a fantastic actor. I've seen him as Figaro, absolutely the best, and as Dulcamara, ditto. (He is from Uruguay not Germany.) His talent was wasted on the part of Pharaon here, which was basically a stand and sing part. I hope no one will judge his talent based on this role. Actually, all the parts were the stand and sing sort. Only Amenophis, sung by Giuseppe Filanoti, who was ... Read More Rating: - Read the Other ReviewsMost of what I intended to write has been expressed at length in other reviews. Let me just stress that "it's all about the music" and the performance thereof, which is superb: every note in tune, every phrase well articulated. The ensemble is as balanced as imaginable, though at times the miking of the singers is less than perfect. One reviewer denigrates the performance of Giuseppe Filianotti as Amenophis. I totally disagree. Filianotti is the least static, the most expressive, and in his use of dynamics ... Read More Rating: - MOISE ET PHARAON "LET MY PEOPLE GO!"I was unfamiliar with most of this music except for the ensemble just before the parting of the Red Sea. Hands down, Barbara Frittoli steals the vocal honors with Ildar Abdrazakov as Moise and Sonia Ganassi as the Pharaoh's wife snapping at her heels. The other seven singers are totally up to the task and demands of this score. This work has oratorio writen all over it. There simply isn't any action on the stage except for the ballet and parting of the Red Sea. The first performance of this work was in ... Read More Browse for similar items by category:
