Title: GREAT MUSIC AND THEATER! GREAT VICKERS!!!
Review: I was fortunate to see and hear Jon Vickers in this role both at the MET and in this particular production at Covent Garden (once sitting within reach of Vickers in the side stall seats!). Britten was a pedophile and that's what the Opera is about. Vickers however, who was homophobic transforms the work into something much more 'universal' than the petty gay themes that are in all of Britten's Operas.It is a magnificent perfomance both vocally and theatrically and is as close to a 'must', like Callas' Tosca , as there is in Opera.
