Editorial Review:
Description:
This romantic and rarely performed opera by Ambroise Thomas is now available on DVD in a new production from the Gran Teatre del Liceu in Barcelona. Starring Natalie Dessay and Simon Keenlyside, this Hamlet production is guaranteed to become the benchmark for all other Hamlets to come on DVD. Dessay creates a monumental performance of Ophelie, culminating in one of the most gripping Mad Scenes of all time ("Partagez-vous mes fleurs…et maintenant ecoutez ma chanson…").

Great work by miss Dessay who set the bar for Ophelia quite high, perhaps a new standard for this role.

This is an amazing production and one can appreciate the incredible talent and the great loss of Natalie Dessay to the world of music. Her ability to continiue to sing and act in the "mad scene" with such amazing focus is truly remarkable. I am very pleased to have been able to purchase this DVD. I can only hope that she will recover and be able to continue to perform. The entire production was riveting and the music reamarkabley haunting.
