Any reprise of the Strehler Nozze di Figaro has to be a major event. And in 2010, thirty-seven years after its premiere, the work met with a fresh triumph at the Opera Bastille, featuring a new generation of performers: Ludovic Tezier as Count Almaviva, Barbara Frittoli as Countess Almaviva, Ekaterina Siurina as Susanna, Luca Pisaroni as Figaro and Karine Deshayes as Cherubino.
Filmed at the Paris Opera with Philippe Jordan as the musical director, he revealed the Orchestra and Chorus of the Opera National de Paris at the height of their powers.
The program also include bonus interview featuring Humbert Camerlo, who worked for many years with Giorgio Strehler and was the stage director for this reprise.
