 Rating:  - Great Music, Tiresome stagingThe best thing about this DVD: a chance to be introduced to some of most wonderful music beyond the standard repertory. As someone forever seeking something I haven't heard before, this score was something of a revelation. And this is greatly to the credit of William Christie, and his superb group of singers (Piau, Naouri, d'Oustrac, Piolino, Lehtipuu) who were fully engaged and demonstrated that there is much fine singing beyond the Three Tenors world. However: the staging is just ... Read More Rating:  - A Travesty"Baroque opera that Rocks!" No! I say: A Travesty! By the looks of the other reviews of Las Paladins it appears that I am in a decided minority. Only one other reviewer of the eleven faulted this production saying that if Rameau were not dead he would certainly "sue the producers" here for this desecration of his score. I quite agree.

Smoothly ... Read More Rating: - a fabulous performanceThe wildly imaginative and witty presentation of this work brings the exceptional scholarship of William Christie's brilliant interpretation within range of more viewers than a more legit presentation could. Rating:  - fun with an updated Rameauwith a mix of video,ethnic catchy modern dance and a cast having visible fun, this is a true revelation of what can be done with 18th century music.it is full of spirit and wit;and not at all the french equivalent of the four seasons you know music you've heard way too often....Piau and Lehtipuu are wonderfull sprightly singers; forget the twists of the plot and savor the delicious music!
