Mozart: Die EntfĂźhrung aus dem Serail
Director David McVicar's original-period vision for this Mozartian gem allows its genius to speak for itself, offering a âmesmerising, sensitive ⌠outstandingâ portrayal of Enlightenment-era fascination with the East that is both âexquisitely acted and sungâ, featuring a Konstanze and a Belmonte sung with âfinesse and bravuraâ and a âsensationally voicedâ Osmin (The Guardian *****). Comic relief in Glyndebourne's âbrilliant productionâ is provided by âbeautifully sung live-wire performancesâ of Pedrillo and Blonde, and Robin Ticciati leads the Orchestra of the Age of Enlightenment through a restored, authentic rendition of the critical score with âlovely fizzâ and âpoignant gravitasâ (The Independent). Filmed in High Definition and recorded in true Surround Sound.
