I had a better impression of the production than you, but my own quibbles (that tunnel in the rock scene has nothing whatever to do stylistically with anything else in the production; in the accoustically-friendly Family Circle I got very tired of hearing the skilled set crew throwing cues at each other evry time the bleachers had to move; Levine's heavy, Romantic-era conducting) are real.<BR/><BR/>Still, for me, the integration of dance throughout the entire opera, not just the specified dance pieces, and the joy of the final celebration went far to fulfill what I think ORFEO is all about. <BR/><BR/>Thanks for linking JJ's review, Maury.Willhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14279473113628377106noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17999907.post-57340404186234398482007-05-10T23:24:00.000-05:002007-05-10T23:24:00.000-05:00You're far from being alone on this.
