I was confused more than anything. Willy Decker ´s 2005 Salzburg Traviata is both simple and aesthetic: The oval stage is surrounded by a semicircular wall, the only decorations being the … Two of my favourite operatic performers in a great production. Normally modern productions do not appeal but this bleak but strangely surrealistic setting lends a whole new dimension to the story which becomes believable.

This is my favourite Traviata Blu-ray.

Many fans of Netrebko agree that it is almost impossible to stop watching her when she acting. Stimmlich sowohl als darstellerisch. In tackling the role of Violetta, she put impressive power into spotlights like “Sempre libera” and also won points for delicacy during “Alfredo, Alfredo, di questo core". Director: Willy Decker. Überweltigend schön! UK imports may differ from local products.

I first watched it on youtube one night and that was gripping enough to rekindle my opera watching/listening from 10 years ago when I had a less busy life. This version of La Traviata was the version the Met. Cette Traviata enregistrée à Salzbourg en 2005 est tout à fait représentative de la manière dont on conçoit un opéra de nos jours. Powerful and Masterfully executed! I watched another version (Met on demand) of the same staging by 'Tomboy' Natalie Dessay and that was also better than expected since I'd thought the role would be less of a fit for Dessay. Also included are an introduction by Villazon, behind-the-scenes, trailer for Netrebko - The Woman, The Voice, picture gallery, I already own the 1982 Zefferelli version from the Met, the 1994 Royal Opera House Covent Garden version with Angela Gheorghiu, the 2004 La Fenice production with Patrizia Ciofi, the 2005 from Madrid with Norah Amsellem, the 2006 Los Angeles Opera version with Renee Fleming and the 2008 La Scala, again with Angela Gheorghiu so, why buy another version?

Plain, a bit disturbing,demanding some stamina to watch in one sitting (meaning the DVD). Massenhafte mediale Aufmerksamkeit für die Oper dank der knuffig-knusprigen Russin Anna Netrebko: Eine Traumbesetzung vergoldet Willy Deckers neue „Traviata“ bei den Salzburger Festspielen.

However, to my ears, delighted by the new media after having to put up with hissy LPs, it was the 80's that signified a "golden age".

I was very worried about it and extremely nervous.

Ich weiß dass immer Vergleiche gemacht werden mit Aufnahmen von z.B. This modernistic, almost total abstraction in sets seems an anomaly, in a production often given in lavish costumes, ballet dancing and much extravagance that threatens to drown the story.

In the end the big clock is used as a gambling table; not a bad idea. Please try againSorry, we failed to record your vote. For having been so successful up to that point in stripping away the unnecessary to zero in on the the powerful emotions in the story, the ending blew apart the intimacy that had built up between the characters and the audience and became cold. Of course the updating works against the drama....who in our age would object to the ties between the lovers....there's no bourgeoisie in our world. It's also very sexy with the second act displaying the lovers in their underwear....not a bad display with such attractive artists.

Darstellerisch überzeugt sie am stärksten, wo sie sich selbst spielen kann, etwa im zweiten Akt: Da turnt ein fröhliches Girlie kichernd über die Sofakante, balanciert, versteckt sich vor dem Liebsten, läßt sich die Füße küssen.In diesem Landhaus-Akt hat Gussmann die lebensspendende Natur mit fünf geblümten Sofas als ein prächtiges Ambiente der Illusionen ausgemalt, wie überhaupt die gesamte Ausstattung fernsehgerecht auf wenige, starke Zeichen reduziert ist, die wie aus dem Versandhauskatalog der Gefühle zu stammen scheinen: Große Blumen für das Glück, eine große Uhr für das Menetekeln und ein klinisch weißer Rundhorizont aus Wellpappe, vor dem Chor, Tod und Männervolk - also alle außer Violetta selbst - wirken wie ein Schwarm schwarzer Unglücksraben.
