The
Nose (Shostakovich)
VAI DVD 4517 $39.95
The
Moscow Chamber Opera Theatre made operatic history in 1974 with
their definitive production of The Nose by Dmitri Shostakovich
(1906-1975). It marked the first time this modern masterpiece
had been performed in Russia since its 1930 premiere; rehearsals
were supervised by the composer himself. In the words of Boris
Pokrovsky, who founded the Moscow Chamber Opera Theatre in 1972, “Shostakovich
loved us. He loved this production. He loved our young theatre
as one loves children for whom one has high hopes. For our theatre,
the association with such a great artist and human being became
the inspiration for the future life of our company.”
In
this 1979 taping of the production, the esteemed conductor Gennady
Rozhdestvensky leads soloists, Chorus, and Orchestra of the Moscow
Chamber Opera Theater. DVD bonus: Footage of Shostakovich at one
of the rehearsals (1975), and Boris Pokrovsky speaking about the
genesis and importance of the production. In Russian; subtitles
in English, French, Italian, Russian, and Spanish. 111 minutes,
Color, stereo, 4:3, All regions.
