| | Meyerbeer - Les Huguenots DVD Denning / Leech / Meyerbeer / Peacock / Soltesz CDS
Giacomo Meyerbeer's adored opera, LES HUGUENOTS, is a grand five-part affair which ranks at the top of the 19th century operatic successes. A dramatic detailing of the conflict between Protestants and Catholics, the opera is performed here by the famed Deutsche Opera in Berlin. Restaged and contextualized in the setting of a modern Germany divided by the Berlin Wall, LES HUGUENOTS takes on new resonance. The principal performers, including Angela Denning, Lucy Peacock, Martin Blasius, Hartmut Welker, and Richard Leech, all shine.
This is the only Hartmut Welker video.

Ingmar Bergman has stated that THE MAGIC FLUTE had long since been an inspiration to him by the time he directed this movie version of an actual staging of Mozart's opera. In Emanuel Schikaneder's libretto--performed here in Swedish instead of German--Prince Tamino (Josef Köstlinger) is sent by the mysterious and powerful Queen of the Night (Birgit Nordin) to rescue her daughter, Pamina (Irma Urrila), from the sorcerer Sarastro (Ulrik Cold), who has kidnapped the girl. Tamino is aided on his mission by the bird catcher Papageno (Håkan Hagegård), an endearing buffoon (and arguably the opera's most popular character) who wants nothing more than to find himself a loving wife. The director presents a shortened version of the story, enhanced with a Freudian plot element (of sorts), while also giving the piece a slight overhaul for a more modern, less politically questionable feel. Bergman shows the goings-on onstage, often zooming in for close-ups of the performers' interaction with one another, interspersed with shots of individual faces in the audience. The actors were mostly chosen for their appearance and stage presence rather than their vocal prowess, though ...
