Eva Mei, Isabel Rey, Liliana Nikiteanu, Christoph Strehl, Rudolf Schasching, Julia Kleiter & Gabriel Bermudez Orchestra “La Scintilla” der Oper Zürich, Nikolaus Harnoncourt (conductor) & Tobias Moretti (director) Set Design by Rolf Glittenberg & Costumes by Renate Martin & Andreas Dornhauser Early in the Mozart Anniversary Year 2006, Nikolaus Harnoncourt presented his reading of La Finta Giardiniera, a long-forgotten wonderfully tragicomic opera by the young Mozart. Almost a quarter of a century ago Harnoncourt presented his reading of the rediscovered work on CD, but in this version from the Zurich Opera, the great Mozart magician conducted a staged production for the fi rst time, making the premiere an event in itself. TDK is proud to present Mozart admirers with a Blu-Ray of this acclaimed production recorded live in February 2006. Tobias Moretti, a popular Austrian actor with a musical background presented this, his second opera staging, to high praise from audience and critics alike. He sees this opera about mistaken identities and true love within a hierarchical order as a play on societal conditions at the onset of the enlightenment. This interpretation is supported by the simple and effective stage and costume design by the team Glittenberg/Martin/Dornhauser. The mayor’s symmetrical bungalow marks the setting, mirroring a strong hierarchical order and simple props like tables and gauzes are easily recognized in their changing function as wedding-table, later court table and, nuptial bed, or veil and wedding dress – suggesting that the characters’ at the end fi nd themselves in a topsy-turvy world. | | | In stock - usually despatched within 1 working day. |

Eva Mei, Isabel Rey, Liliana Nikiteanu, Christoph Strehl, Rudolf Schasching, Julia Kleiter & Gabriel Bermudez Orchestra “La Scintilla” der Oper Zürich, Nikolaus Harnoncourt (conductor) & Tobias Moretti (director) “Harnoncourt, 76, brings a lifetime of revolutionary musical thought to the neglected work. The strings utter each note like a different word in a witty sentence, the winds sigh or taunt, the horns flare up in brassy rage. And the vocal lines blossom above, never swamped.” Bloomberg | | | In stock - usually despatched within 1 working day. |

“I had already known and admired Idomeneo, Così fan tutte, and Die Zauberflöte, but La clemenza di Tito was new to me: happily it is quite up to the excellent standard of the others, all of them notable for the clarity of the period-instrument sound and for a production wholly appropriate to the tiny Drottningholm space.” Gramophone | | | Usually despatched in 2 - 3 working days. |
