Title: all that difficult music
Review: I had a hard time getting through MINOTAUR in one sitting even after educating myself with everything I could read on the Internet about the subject matter, music and composer. I would go to see any performance of LULU or WOZZECK any day of the week but MINOTAUR would be a hard sell. I simply could not get into the music. If it wasn't for the glorious singing of Christine Rice in the roll of ARIADNE I probably would have given up. I could not fault the production values especially the lighting. A feast for the eyes on this DVD. The surround sound was fantastic but I just needed more drama and a hint of a melody in the score. I'm going to put this work on the shelf for now but in a few months will try it again.
Is the review positive or negative?
