    Many thanks to Operavision and The Royal Swedish Opera for presenting the opera in 4k resolution. The quality of the 4k transfer is excellent, coping well with the low stage lighting.
    Dare we hope that the videographers realise that filming in 1080p in dim stage lighting is now a thing of the past?

    I hardly know where to begin. Do the singers and the conductor have any idea of style?! Everything is slow, loud and heavy. Where are Rossini's elegance and humor? Figaro screams and Almaviva has problems from the beginning, Don Basilio's incessant hissing is neither funny, nor sinister. The tempi are unbearably slow depriving music of any life and bounce so necessary for Rossini. This could be Wagner for all the sense of belcanto style.

    I can buy quite well the commedia dell’arte staging but what I cannot buy is a) horrible pit; does the guy know 1:00:43 how to conduct opera - ? Tempi are quite weird. Almaviva is nonexistent. Figaro is a tad too heavy. Rosina is most secure but the timbre is not sympatico. All in all everything is too heavy and lacking rossinian spirit and style.

      Here can't you hear that its high mids are very tight and weak? This is a sign of poor vocal health caused by too much effort and pressure. Its B flats still work, but I don't give it more than 5 years before it is unlistenable.

      No voice left? 😂 it’s not true. Hahaha.
      Me and Maestro Milletari really wanted to put my last aria, but production team didn’t want it, because barbiere is already too long to see for audiences and opera company want to make a production that any other tenor will be able to sing easily after me. You know what that means? 😉 If Regie sets up differently in premiere, they would a bit struggle to find tenor who can sing difficult aria next time revival. Otherwise, Regie has to make “new revival version without last super crazy aria”. 😊 So it’s shame for me either that i missed to chance to sing “Cessa” in production. Maybe next time i hope. 😊

    IMHO there is very little to recommend this as a performance of what should be a light and humorous opera but has sadly missed the target by some distance. The staging is quirky and somewhat odd but for apparently no reason other to be different. A number of the principles are struggling, Figaro is shouty and disjointed in his delivery, Don Bartolo becomes indistinct in the faster passages, and Almaviva seems out of his depth from the very beginning. Just a bit disappointing.

    This tenor sang Arnold from William Tell in 2016. Even at the time he was pushing his voice to ensure he could sing it properly. But to novice ears it sounded pretty good. It was window dressing.
    8 years later what is left? A voice that struggles in barely high notes, in a role that is also very light and easier... Without even singing Cessa si pui resistere, which is an admission of the singer's weakness.
    This is where this industry of “I can sing any repertoire because I have the notes! Duuuh!” is leading us.
    It destroys voices, it destroys careers, and even more quickly when the technique is not excellent.
    10 years of career, that’s what we offer our current singers. Great shame. Grande vergogna.

    Die Zirkusmannschaft am Anfang ging für mich schon heftig in die falsche Richtung. Und es blieb so - oft steif und langweilig. Das Orchester langsam und schwer. Das Gegenteil von Rossini. Die guten Sänger werden innerlich und äußerlich zu Holzpuppen - Commedia del Arte ist das auch nicht. Also mein Beifall ist eher verhalten.

    • @dckrn
      @dckrn 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      I have to agree, Rossini’s music is brisk and upbeat, this orchestra is dragging it too much to keep a light crisp sound and tempo . Too dark for Commedia del Arte for me .

    Singers are all awful. Almaviva was sung 90% of time in falsetto,and the tenor has zero flexibility in his voice,to the point that the final aria "Cessa..." disappeared to avoid his death on scene.
    Rosina with no high notes.
    Figaro with and awful vibratto...
    The scene is so plain that could be happening in any city but Sevilla. Not to mention makeup. Made me think they made a mistake and used the one from I Pagliacci.
    Only one good things:Wigs. Wigs were great. Congratulations to the hairdressers.
