The Enchanted Island (Metropolitan Opera)

[Old Grumpy]

I agree with Chris's review of the music and singing. I'm just back from seeing it in the cinema. A visual feast, with quite a bit of amusing business, and a stunning coup de theatre for the end of Act I - Neptune's court underwater, complete with four mermaids flying/swimming above! I thought the orchestra was terrific.

Yes, I saw it too and agree with all of the above. A great spectacle and well presented. Much enjoyed.

Does no one else have a hankering to hear the original works rather than this melange?
