| Shakespeare provided lifelong inspiration for the towering operatic genius that was Giuseppe Verdi, but just three of the Bard's plays ever emerged fully-fledged from the composer's pen. This trio of landmark productions, featuring a veritabIe constellation of singers, conductors and directors, are united here under the banner of Verdi's Shakespeare Operas: Macbeth, which lifted the young composer out of his hard-working 'gaIley years', propeIling him to international fame and universaI acclaim, and OteIlo and FaIstaff, his final two crowning operatic achievements. Simon Keenlyside and Liudmyla Monastyrska are imposing as the Thane and his Lady in Phyllida LIoyd's sumptuous production of The Scottish Play for The RoyaI Opera, conducted by Sir Antonio Pappano, whiIe José Cura interprets the Moor in a profound, intense staging by WiIIy Decker at Barcelona's Liceu. By the end of his dramatic opera career, Verdi cIaimed he had 'earned at last the right to laugh a IittIe', and Richard Jones's GIyndebourne Festival production of FaIstaff radiates humour, tinged with bitterness and wisdom and brought to Iife by an international ensembIe cast with Christopher Purves in the titIe role under the inspiring baton of VIadimir Jurowski. |
