Prokofiev - The Love for Three Oranges

Choir of De Nederlandse Opera, Denegrave, Stephane, Rotterdam Philharmonic Orchestra

DVD OA 0957 D

Prokofiev - The Love for Three OrangesProkofiev's enchantingly surreal commedia del'larte masterwork is turned into a spectacular triumph of total theatre in this vital production from the Amsterdam Muziektheater. De Nederlandse Opera has chosen to use the more flexible French libretto of the 1921 premiere, a pertinent choice which has the advantage of accentuating the aesthetic common ground shared by Prokofiev and Les Six. Stéphane Denegrave's brilliant musical direction inspires outstanding performances from the soloists and the superb Rotterdam Philharmonic Orchestra, enhanced by the smart, blockbusting staging of Laurent Pelly and the exquisite sets of Chantal Thomas, which propel this feverish fable to great heights.
