En direct, Vidéo: Rechercher des critiques de musique classique, opéra et ballet | Farnace, RV 711

Vivaldi's opera Farnace presents a basically insoluble problem: how to produce a more or less complete version. While this is not solved by the Ferrara production, it is strong musically and enjoyable.

Smart direction and a spirited performance in the pit bring Farnace to life in a resonant setting at this year’s Lednicko Valtický Hudební Festival.

Christophe Gayral gives Vivaldi's Farnace a contemporary update at the Teatro Malibran, but there are musical compensations. 

Vivaldi's Farnace is reconstructed by Pinchgut Opera in ways which might not do the composer full dramatic justice, but the production and high musical values provide an excellent night of operatic drama.
