    "A -must have- for Verdi's lovers. . ."
  

*by M***Z on Reviewed in the United States on July 27, 2007*

This performance was taped live in 1972 at Glydebourne, a mid size theatre. The set is quite intelligent incorporating creative customs for the XI century original history combined with a mysterious stage environment and obscurity atmosphere. In particular the witches scene which is creepy. The sound and picture quality are amazing keeping in mind that this was recorded more than 30 years ago.John Pritchard conduction is impeccable, printing his signature style with electrifying power and stamina to the partitura and keeping the touch of softness when required taking this Verdi's master piece to an extraordinary level.The witches and chorus sounds well synchronized projecting the darkness and uncertainty involved in the script.Kostas Paskalis (R.I.P.) is tremendous as Macbeth, in great shape being in his early 40's, (actually he is 42 in this performance) he delivers passion and commitment in this memorable legacy of his art. His voice in a perfect match for the role, his tone and technique are exceptional, the way he integrate both singing and acting is astonishing.James Morris portrays a young Banquo solemn and memorable, managing an obscurity in his tone that covered effectively the role expectations.Josephine Barstow is a surprising Lady Macbeth starting with her beautiful figure and wicked gestures showing both greed and vengeance. She owns a powerful vocal instrument (She does use it!) and an amazing breath technique.Keith Erwen is a respectful Macduff warm voice and heroic scene presence.The memorable accomplishments in my particular opinion are, Lady Macbeth first act aria, the wonderful duo between Lady Macbeth and Macbeth "Dove son io, svaniro. . ." at the end of the second and Macbeth's aria of the forth.Needless to say, that this is a bargain not only for the price, but the production itself. There are not many video performances for this Verdi's title and I doubt there is even one nearly as good.

    la stupenda
  

*by G***I on Reviewed in the United States on January 14, 2010*

whyohwhy did josephine barstow not have a bigger international career???  she is chilling in this role, especially in the sleepwalking scene.  and i would dispute any reviewer who calls her acting "hammy"!  i was fortunate to have seen her perform during my infrequent visits to london in the seventies, including the most remarkable, touching Violetta of my many years of opera going----and I saw all the big names perform. (except callas.)  Paskalis is in good voice, but to my mind he never really gets into the role as a number of other baritones of the 60's and 70's were able to.  and if james morris could only have kept his 25 year old voice.  but i digress.  a fabulous macbeth, and yes the glyndebourne chorus is superb in this recording.  this disc is a steal at the price and every lover of this opera should have two copies (one to give to a friend).

    ¡Por fin un Macbeth como debe ser!

Macbeth es sin dudas una de las grandes óperas de Verdi, a pesar de algunos ripios que tiene la orquestación propios de sus años iniciales. La belleza de sus arias y de sus coros como así también el acertado desarrollo de los personajes que intervienen en la tragedia, cuya base está tomada del gran Shekespeare, hacen de esta ópera una de las obras más atractivas del repertorio operático italiano.Las exigencias tanto musicales como histriónicas que se plantean a los cantantes son muy altas, pudiendo afirmar que en esta versión todas ellas quedan ampliamente satisfechas. Especialmente hay que destacar a los dos personajes principales. Paskalis es un excelente barítono dotado de una voz de registro amplio y poderosa, que maneja con una técnica estupenda, la que llega a niveles excepcionales en el manejo del pianissimo. Adicionalmente es un gran actor. Ojalá lo pudiéramos ver en papeles como Rigoleto, Simón Boccanegra o Iago, en los que sin duda luciría todos sus atributos. Por su parte, Barstow alcanza alturas similares interpretando el papel de Lady Macbeth, difícil tanto en lo histriónico como por las tremendas demandas vocales. Su registro de mezzo-soprano es poderoso y bello, y su aparición final en estado de locura es realmente sobrecogedor.Morris es un Banquo de noble expresión y acertada emisión. Erwen tiene un agradable timbre y un acertado volumen de emisión, sin embargo no logra entregar el pathos que exige la bellísima área "A la paterna mano".La puesta en escena, si bien muy simple, logra ambientar el drama en la Escocia de la época. Muy destacable son los vestuarios que combinan lo moderno de sus estampados con lo clásico de sus diseños.Sin dudas, se trata de la mejor versión de Macbeth en DVD, superando a la puesta en escena de la Opera de Zürich, que cuenta también con muy buenos cantantes, precisamente por la ambientación que se logra en el escenario y por los vestuarios.
