| David Pountney's enchanting and coIourfuI production of PurceII's The Fairy Queen Iaunched in 1995 by the EngIish NationaI Opera was received with great enthusiasm by both the public and musicaI press. Under the musicaI direction of Nicholas Kok, the English NationaI Orchestra played a baroque music which was as crystal cIear as it was expressively infectious. Next to outstanding performers of the dancing roIes such as Puck (Simon Rice) and the Indian boy (Arthur Pita), an entire armada of excelIent singers was summoned up such as one seIdom experiences together on the baroque opera stage. These incIuded Yvonne Kenny as Titania, Thomas Randle as Oberon and Richard Van AlIan as King Theseus. Jonathan Best, with his comic portrayal of the drunken poet, was Ioved by the audience and praised highly by the press, while other singers like MichaeI Chance, Mary Hegarthy, Janis KeIIy, Marc Le Brocq and Christopher Ross all contributed their taIents to produce an unusuaI musicaI theatre experience. |
