Beschrijving

Günther Groissböck (Sarastro), Saimir Pirgu (Tamino), Albina Shagimuratova (Queen of the Night), Genia Kühmeier (Pamina), Ailish Tynan (Papagena), Alex Esposito (Papageno) & Peter Bronder (Monostatos) & Orchestra of Teatro alla Scala & Choir of the Accademia del Teatro alla Scala, Roland Böer (conductor) & William Kentridge (stage director)

Met zijn monochrome projecties creëert hij niet alleen sensationele ruimtelijke gevoelens, maar ook nieuwe en, in de beste zin van het woord, "verhelderende" betekeniscontexten. Het sprookjesachtige en fantastische plot van De Toverfluit heeft beeldende kunstenaars altijd geïnspireerd om de gebeurtenissen op het toneel met hun vaardigheden te verrijken.

De in Zuid-Afrika geboren kunstenaar en regisseur William Kentridge had met zijn spectaculaire en stimulerende produktie van Mozarts Zauberflöte al op drie continenten de toon gezet toen de huidige opname vanuit La Scala in Milaan werd gemaakt.

"It is world-worthy; the conception, by South African artist William Kentridge, emphasizes the concepts of light and dark, exploration and love...It's endlessly good to look at...Musically, there is also much to admire...Esposito's Papageno is a well-sung charmer - more serious than many, deeply sincere...this is a fascinating take on the work that Flute aficionados will appreciate for plenty of reasons."
International Record Review - March 2012

"This is a wonderful performance...I was more moved and enchanted by this than by any other Magic Flute I have seen on DVD...[Esposito's Papageno] sung with glorious abandon, while his acting strikes notes of pathos...Kuhmeier is as expressive as it's possible to be, without transgressing Mozart's idiom...The most sensational performance is by [Shagimuratova], the finest Queen of the Night I have ever heard...This is a noble, ennobling achievement."
BBC Music Magazine - April 2012 *****

"It is very much 'producer's opera' and it will annoy some people. I found it fascinating...Lively musical direction, incorporating Rene Jacobs's superfluous keyboard interjections. Don't miss this visually enchanting and thought-provoking treat."
Gramophone Magazine - May 2012
