ORFEO& EURIDICE was a remarkable, influential, and revolutionary opera in multiple ways, demonstrative of many of the things that made Christoph Willibald Gluck a great composer. Eschewing the Baroque propensity toward over-ornamentation and stiff formality at the expense of dramatic flow. He wanted greatly to allow the poetry to shine through in the music, not be drowned out by superfluous pomp. Also manifesting a French influence, which Gluck wanted to meld with Italian opera, the work breaks down the traditional barriers between recitative and aria. Nonetheless, ORFEO& EURIDICE unfolds on a grand scale, employing choruses of shades and furies that contrast with Orfeo's earthly search for Euridice. The opera that largely heralded the end of the Baroque era is still widely performed, often as a ballet, and is often depicted on a much grander, more elaborate scale, as seen in this lavish interpretation.DVD Features:Region (unknown)Keep CaseFull Frame - 1.33

Verdi's breakthrough work, which spurred his ascension to becoming the master of Italian opera during his lifetime, NABUCCO marks his achievement of the linguistic and expressive goals that he had so striven for. Premiering in Milan in 1842, the opera was an immediate success. The story tells of the Israelites, led by high priest Zaccaria, and their invasion by Assyrian king Nabucco. This interpretation was staged at the Carlo Felice Theater in Genoa and features a young and talented cast, including Susan Neves as the treacherous Abigaille; Alberto Gazale in a convincing turn as Nabucco; and Orlin Anastassov as a charismatic Zaccaria.DVD Features:Region 0Keep CaseAnamorphic WidescreenAudio: Dolby Digital 5.1 DTS PCM Stereo
