Outstanding singers, conductors and directors come together in five diverse but compeIIing operas by Benjamin Britten. The turbulent, inward fishing community of Peter Grimes is transposed to a merciIess 1980s society in Richard Jones' production. An 'outstanding' Sarah ConnoIly (Guardian) stars in The Rape of Lucretia, navigating the difficuIt taIe with superb poise. BiIIy Budd is grippingly staged aboard the claustrophobic MS lndomitabIe, with Jacques ImbraiIo portraying the troubled sailor in the 2010 Glyndebourne Festival Opera production by MichaeI Grandage. More Iight-hearted is the RoyaI Opera House staging of Gloriana, penned by Britten to ceIebrate the Coronation of Queen EIizabeth Il and featuring Susan Bullock as the monarch. Finally, Edward Gardner conducts the English NationaI Opera in Deborah Warner's highly acclaimed production of Death in Venice, In which John Graham-Hall stars as the ageing Gustav von Aschenbach. These productions from some of the worId's best opera houses offer five masterful performances that are an ideaI way to experience Benjamin Britten's music. Filmed in High Definition and recorded in true Surround Sound. |
