5.0 out of 5 stars My favourite Figaro so far, 27 Jun 2005
By Stephen Evans (Shropshire, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I have three DVDs (Gardiner, Harnencourt and this Bohm) several CDs (including Gui, Davis) and I have seen many productions. This has long been my favourite production. I understand some people's irritation with Ponnelle's voice-over techniques, but they seem to me legitimate in a film. Hardly anywhere does the filming seem to interfere unnecessarily with the music. Savour this for its performances, particularly Fischer-Dieskau and Prey, Te Kanewa, Freni and show-stealing Ewing. If you have any doubts about the quality of the production watch Act II and see the way the sub-texts, highlighted in the music, are made comically evident. I admit the last act is something of an anti climax to the middle acts - but then perhaps it is in actuality. This production convinced me once again that Figaro is perhaps the greatest opera ever written. Perhaps not my favourite - that would perhaps be Cosi - but by far the most densely figured and socially perceptive of operas, certainly the most perfect marriage of music, theatre and narrative. I know it is often said that Da Ponte softened Beaumarchais' social comment. There's plenty in Mozart's and Da Ponte's work if more subtly featured. None is missed in this DVD.
I love the rich, dark Harnencourt Figaro and have fallen in love with Alison Hagley's Susanna (a lighter and more mercurial Susanna that the measured calm of Freni) in the Gardiner; but if you can only have one, then do not miss the Ponnelle. If you already have the video, as I had, rest assured the quality leap of the DVD is worth the expense.

5.0 out of 5 stars Superlative in every way, 22 Sep 2007
I cannot rate this film of perhaps my favourite Mozart Opera highly enough. It has everything ... beauty, wit, charm and above all the depth of the passion is brought out through the beauty of the music so eloquently performed by the artists.

The only very slight criticism I have is that Susanna looks so similar to Cherubino!!! A very minor detail.

Please do choose this as your first option you really will not regret it.

5.0 out of 5 stars The wedding of Suzanna, 24 Jun 2007
By P. Pieters (The Netherlands) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
What struck me most in this Nozze di Figaro is the fun Mirella Freni has as Suzanna. She is realy enjoying herself. And that works very infectious. Mirella Freni is the star of this Nozze di Figaro. The rest of the cast is also appealing. Karl Böhm doesn't rush the story but supports it with beautiful playing. The story is filmed as a movie. Voice-overs are a movie technique. They don't bother me. You hear what people are thinking. A very recommended Nozze di Figaro.
