“The presence of vision in the finely directed DVD serves to underline an implicit ambiguity in the opera - whether Madiel and the spirits conjured up in Act II are real or are just Renata's paranoid delusions...The frenetic, highly charged atmosphere of the final Convent scene benefits by vision particularly in this splendid production.”
