Accordion Performance Not for the Faint of Heart
Richard Croft
Phillip Glass’ Satyagraha at the Met
A report from the Metropolitan Opera’s November 19 HD transmission of Satyagraha, by Phillip Glass.
Metropolitan Opera’s New ‘Das Rheingold’
A scene from the Metropolitan Opera’s performance of Wagner’s ‘Das Rheingold’ with Stephanie Blythe as Fricka, Franz-Josef Selig as Fasolt, Dwayne Croft as Donner, Wendy Bryn Harmer as Freia, Richard Croft as Loge, Bryn Terfel as Wotan and Hans-Peter Konig as Fafner.
If you attended the live HD transmission of the Metropolitan Opera’s new Das Rheingold, you might have experienced a rather different opera than did the critics from their seats in the Metropolitan Opera House. I thought it might add texture to the discussion about Robert Lepage’s high-tech baby to chime in with my own thoughts.
