The very definition of a music DVD -- an aesthetic drench! December 12, 2007
4 out of 4 found this review helpful
It's not possible to over-praise this product, and it's a crime against art that fresh-from-the-factory copies are now (one fervently hopes temporarily) out of stock, only overpriced used copies. Even so, if you (a) love Debussy as the Second Coming of musical genius, (b) love clever ballet choreography, and (c) love dazzling, hyper-sophisticated stage and lighting effects, this is the DVD for you. Everything about it drips with professionalism -- save for one egregious (if minor) techno-hitch in the main menu. If you click on "Prelude a l'Apres-Midi d'un Faune" you get "Jeux" and vice versa. A bit flummoxing at first until you rewire your neural circuits. But by the time you're safely in the music (courtesy of the Vienna Philharmonic and a first class little troupe of danceurs: two males and one ballerina) you'll have forgotten the confusing shuffle at the theater door. Hats, caps, and berets off to this A-Number One production, and shame shame shame on the Capriccio label for allowing this gem-of-gems of a music DVD to go out of stock. Beg borrow or steal to get yours.
