Composer Nicolai Rimsky-Korsakoff
Conductor Valery Gergiev
Galusin, Diadkova, and Tsidipova star in the Kirov Opera & Ballet production of the Rimsky-Korsakov opera conducted by Valery Gergiev.

Rimsky-Korsakov's epic Russian opera was photographed at the Mirinsky Theatre in St. Petersburg and was conducted by Valery Gergiev. This sweeping story captures not only Korsakov's vision of the sea, but also the Russian art movements in vogue at the time of the production's original staging.

5 stars Beautiful performance!
Gergiev/Kirov Opera - Sadko Gergiev / Kvo / Kvob / Rimsky-Korsakov There are very few opera companies in the world that can successfully mount operas by Rimsky-Korsakov. Huge forces are required: a large chorus, a large ballet, a flock of great singers and an orchestra capable of extreme virtuosity and precision. All of these are present in this performance of Sadko. The transfer from performance to DVD is excellent. The view of the Opera we get is beautiful. Although there is much static staging (which is required given the sheer number of forces that are being manipulated on the stage) it is more than made up for by the opulence of the production. This is a very successful DVD and anyone interested in the operas of Rimsky-Korsakov should consider it seriously. If you found this performance as exciting as I did you will want to look at the performance of Mlada - The Bolshoi Ballet also available on this site.

Gergiev/Kirov Opera - Sadko DVD
DVD $24.19
She's classy. She's posh. She's savvy. And she's just as much "working girl" as she is "hooker with a heart of gold." Meet Belle, (DOCTOR WHO's Billie Piper), an expensive London call girl who's willing to take viewers on an intimate tour through her daily life. There's the personal on one side, the professional on the other, and never the twain shall meet, right? Well, for now at least. On the whole, Belle is a consummate professional, and her unusual lifestyle requires her to be coy with those who don't know how she truly earns her living. But when facing such dilemmas as whether to ditch an underwhelming john for the rare opportunity of making a sex fantasy come true, or discovering a soft spot for a sweet and wonderful client, it tends to become increasingly difficult to separate business from pleasure and pleasure from heartache. Not unlike the title character of ALFIE, Belle playfully breaks the fourth wall to constantly engage the viewer in a stylistic device that echoes the series' inspiration, a real-life blog written by a high-class prostitute named Belle de Jour. SECRET DIARY OF A CALL GIRL was already a smash-hit in England before it surfaced on the airwaves of Canada's Showcase and America's Showtime, but now this intoxicating, sometimes funny, always sexy drama can be enjoyed internationally. Included here are all eight episodes of the series' first season. Closed Captioned; Additional ...
