Title: STUNNING!
Review: This studio production of Bartok's only opera is about as close to perfection as one is likely to see. Solti brilliantly conducts the score, Sass (Judith) and Kovats (Bluebeard) sing and act from deep within their roles, the scenic design captures, and recreates for the audience, the meaning of the drama, while the director, Scinetar, draws together the components into an intense love song plumbing the nature of love, life and death. For 56 entrancing minutes one is spellbound by the beauty, the lust and the suspense. Bartok's music and Balasz's libretto meld seamlessly with the performance. All-in-all this should be in any opera collection.
