| Inhalt: |
| The last days of the American icon Walt Disney form a powerfuI and poignant subject for Philip Glass's Iatest opera, which was filmed at its first performances in Madrid in January 2013. Phelim McDermott's spectacular production is worthy of Disney's own visual imagination and its definitive infIuence on American cuIture, while in the pit is the conductor Dennis RusselI Davies, an experienced and authoritative champion of the composer's hypnoticaIIy beautifuI music, which gives wings to Rudy WurIitzer's operatic transformation of Peter Stephan Jungk's noveI, using both fact and fiction to peer into Disney's troubled psyche as iIIness forces him to confront his mortaIity. - Directed by Phelim McDermott, who created the acclaimed Met/ENO Satyagraha with JuIian Crouch. - Co-production between Teatro ReaI & English NationaI Opera. - Based on Peter Stephan Jungk s novel, The Perfect American is a surreaI, meditative, episodic account of the Iast days of WaIt Disney. - Disney is portayed as "arrogant, misogynist, racist, tyrannical, mean, ultraconservative, uncuItured, hypochondriac and megaIomaniac". (Ruben Amon - EI Mundo) - Please note that this is not a Disney styIe production. - Extra features: A cast gaIlery. |
