Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Worst staged Aida ever.This Aida features Nina Stemme as Aida and she is very good, and the rest of cast is alright, but not great. The production, done in 19th century garb, has to be the worst coceptions of Aida ever put on stage. The opera takes place in EGYPT, not Wimpole Street. It canno be changed..the period, the style, costumes etc. Aida can be under done or over the top, but never a 19th century piece. The singers try with it, but it is so ludicrous and camp, ( see the openeing scenes ... Read More: Rating:  - Good modern AidaThis is a good modern Aida with good sound and a quality production. However, some older versions (sound only) are superior. The version with Nilsson and Corelli is my favorate. Rating: - Save your moneyThe soprano is great, but the rest of this performance is laughable. The only person missing in this production was Boris Karloff! Rating: - Poor substitute for a real AidaAvoid if you can. If you want a real Aida, go for the DVD of the Covent Garden production with Studer, d'Intino, conducted by Downes. This Aida from Zurich is a minor embarrassment. |
