Title: EXCELLENT PRODUCTION OF MOZART'S FIRST OPERA
Review: This is a very innovative production that for the most part is very effective. Dance moves that could be from the movie "Dirty Dancing" might offend some, but are very effective. The brief appearance of an extra dressed only in floor length hair, which does not quite cover her, is less effective. Overall this is regietheater with a good plan that has meaning for all, not just the director.For fans of Malin Hartelius this a must have. For the first time on DVD she is cast as an older woman. She is perfect in every way.The cast is a very talented group of young singers who are new to me. Every one is very good.The orchestra is comprised of modern instruments expertly balanced. This is a nice change from the bright sound that has dominated early music.
