DVD OA 0965 D

Szostakowicz - Lady Macbeth of Mtsensk. Shostakovich;s musically brilliant and ingeniously panoramic opera about love, lust, power and oppression is fabulously well played by the Concertgebouw Orchestra under Mariss Jansons in this authoritative production. Stage director Martin Kusej builds on formidable musical strengths to forge a relentless drama that explores with emotional conviction the shadowy, layered boundaries between victims and perpetrators. First-rate protagonist Eva-Maria Westbroek is phenomenal in her gripping interpretation of Katarina, compelling the entire cast, including the choir, to almost unbearable realism in their portrayal of timeless human weaknesses.

Please be aware that the production contains stroboscopic light effects, nudity and scenes of a sexual nature. class=redText Plus Illustrated Synopsis Cast Gallery The Tragedy of Katerina Ismailova - A documentary film by Reiner E.
