Title: Multicultural music project management
Product review: Memorial of a historical musical event.The tremendous challenge of getting Chinese,Italians and experts from other nationalities to come together in understanding to create a spectacular version of Turandot with authentic Ming dynasty costumes, scenery in an ancient Peking theatre is portrayed in an exciting way by the same director who won an Oscar for "From Mao to Mozart" with Isaac Stern in 1979.The Italian choirmembers stop singing when the clock strikes 5 (union rules). The Chinese director is worried that the Chinese stagehands (who have had no exposure to western opera) will make a mistake in moving the complicated set and make China look bad in the eyes of the world.The costumes are fantastic, the singing and acting great (The suicide scene of Christina Gallardo as Liu was brilliant.)But most interesting of all are the transcultural communication issues. Recommended viewing for project managers, in whatever branch.
