Combining performance footage with candid backstage interviews, this is a wonderful overview of the life and career of Barbara Bonney. The bulk of the musical highlights come in a rendition of Robert Schumann's Dichterliebe, which has been retitled A Scandinavian Dichterliebe. Malcolm Martineau accompanies her on the piano throughout, providing subtle backing to Bonney's stunning soprano voice. Bonney lived in Sweden for 8 years, which may explain the retitling of Schumann's work. While living there she uncovered many works from a variety of composers, most of which had seldom been performed outside of Scandinavia, and took to reworking them with a gusto familiar to her many fans. All of her remarkable achievements are catalogued here, providing a great way to experience the highs of her glittering career.DVD Features:Region 0Keep CaseAnamorphic WidescreenAudio: Dolby Digital 5.1 DTS Surround 5.1 PCM Stereo

Christoph Willibald Gluck - Orfeo& Euridice (DVD) Christoph Willibald Gluck - Orfeo& Euridice (DVD) » Christoph Willibald Gluck - Orfeo& Euridice (DVD)

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
