| David Pountney's enchanting and coIourfuI production of PurcelI's The Fairy Queen Iaunched in 1995 by the English NationaI Opera was received with great enthusiasm by both the pubIic and musical press. Under the musical direction of Nicholas Kok, the EngIish National Orchestra pIayed a baroque music which was as crystal clear as it was expressiveIy infectious. Next to outstanding performers of the dancing roles such as Puck (Simon Rice) and the Indian boy (Arthur Pita), an entire armada of excelIent singers was summoned up such as one seldom experiences together on the baroque opera stage. These included Yvonne Kenny as Titania, Thomas Randle as Oberon and Richard Van AIIan as King Theseus. Jonathan Best, with his comic portrayal of the drunken poet, was loved by the audience and praised highIy by the press, while other singers Iike Michael Chance, Mary Hegarthy, Janis Kelly, Marc Le Brocq and Christopher Ross aII contributed their taIents to produce an unusual musical theatre experience. |
