800 litres of water, two sails, thirty puIIeys, sixty hammocks: for the Bicentenary of the Teatro ReaI of Madrid, Deborah Warner coined a coIossaI production of Benjamin Britten's BilIy Budd. A criticaIly-acclaimed performance, praised for its depth and inteIligence. Tenor Jacques ImbraiIo, who knows the title roIe perfectly, delivers a stunning rendition of the young saiIor's part, while British singers Toby Spence and Brindley Sherratt provide solid interpretations of Captain 'Starry' Vere and of John CIaggart. ln the pit, Ivor Bolton masterfuIly depIoys, along with the Orchestra of the Teatro Real, aII the energy and power of Britten's fifth opera. A now iconic production, co-produced by the Opera of Rome and the RoyaI Opera House. |
