Product: Fidelio/Beethoven [VHS]
Rating: 5.0
Great cast. Amost great performance.
This intimate Glyndeborne production comes across well on video ... almost as a movie. Soderstrom and the rest of the cast are attractive singers and actors. My only cavil would be that there could have been a little more fire from the orchestra, which, after a rather rough Overture perform well but not with the inspiration called for by the immortal Beethoven music.
