Title: Worst Filming Ever!
Product review: This would have made a decent video if it had been filmed competently but the video director chose to film everything in super macro close-up. I found it unbearable to watch!It's a shame because the musical performance is excellent and Peter Sellars does a better job at staging Giulio Cesare than I expected. Of course, it's hard to tell since we can't tell what the stage looks like because the entire video is in super close-up.I would recommend this video just for the music if there were no other choices for Giulio Cesare. But since there are several to choose from, you can do better than this. My recommendation is for the one conducted by William Christie.I am surprised a big label like Decca would put out such a poorly made video.
