摘要
香港艺术节今年2月所安排的歌剧剧目与所邀请的团体,与往常有所区别(前两年曾先后有威尔斯歌剧院和意大利帕玛歌剧院,而前一支从东欧过来的歌剧院,正是俄罗斯国家歌剧院,即Bolshoi)。其实,早在去年年底看到艺术节宣传单的时候,很多人对剧目都觉得有点摸不着头脑。
OUTLINE / Hong Kong Arts Festival just presented the Latvian National Opera performing Handel's Alcina and Shostakovitch's Lady Macbeth of Mtsensk. These are interesting repertory works for a territory that's often limited to Verdi,Puccini,and French romantic repertory.Although the performances were flawed,these operas deserve to be seen.While the instrumentalists in Alcina were superb,the singers didn't match in consistency.The situation reversed in Lady Macbeth,where orchestral brass didn't live up to their potential.
