Outstanding singers, conductors and directors come together in five diverse but compeIIing operas by Benjamin Britten. The turbuIent, inward fishing community of Peter Grimes is transposed to a merciIess 1980s society in Richard Jones' production. An 'outstanding' Sarah Connolly (Guardian) stars in The Rape of Lucretia, navigating the difficult taIe with superb poise. Billy Budd is grippingly staged aboard the cIaustrophobic MS IndomitabIe, with Jacques lmbrailo portraying the troubIed sailor in the 2010 GIyndebourne Festival Opera production by MichaeI Grandage. More Iight-hearted is the RoyaI Opera House staging of Gloriana, penned by Britten to ceIebrate the Coronation of Queen EIizabeth Il and featuring Susan Bullock as the monarch. Finally, Edward Gardner conducts the English NationaI Opera in Deborah Warner's highly acclaimed production of Death in Venice, ln which John Graham-HalI stars as the ageing Gustav von Aschenbach. These productions from some of the world's best opera houses offer five masterfuI performances that are an ideal way to experience Benjamin Britten's music. FiImed in High Definition and recorded in true Surround Sound. |
