Live, Video: Find classical music concert, opera, ballet and dance reviews | Pier Francesco Maestrini

This production brought the work into the 21st century, at least visually, with a more modernised and digitally-stylised telling than their recent attempts.

Visually this production fully rendered the opera's atmosphere. The director was good at encompassing the private stories and emotions of the three main characters into a broader context, dominated by Fate.

Malgré l'absence du très attendu Jonas Kaufmann dans le rôle-titre, la production monégasque bénéficie d'une distribution de qualité, d'une direction musicale remarquable et d'une mise en scène efficace.
