    An Excellent Opera Staged in an Average Manner
  

*by J***K on Reviewed in the United States on October 29, 2012*

I largely support the comments of the first reviewer who arrived here. I found this production to be pretty much a loss visually. The set with the huge reclining statue had possibilities, perhaps, but not much came of it -- in medium shots it looked like an empty desert. Although I liked Carlotta's costumes very much, all the noblemen in the beginning looked like extras from David Lynch's film version of Dune, dressed in high leather. The central character of Alviano is no longer deformed in this version; at least, not physically. A glam cross-dresser here, he is portrayed in a manner not very compelling to me. All in all, there wasn't that much for the eye. That leaves us, of course with Schreker's music, which is lush and enveloping, but since this DVD isn't all that wonderful visually, except perhaps for Carlotta, I'd suggest you just get a cd of the opera -- the rendition on Decca conducted by Zagrosek is recommended -- and wrap yourself in sound.

    An interesting, but little heard music
  

*by D***D on Reviewed in the United States on May 3, 2008*

With the advent of Decca's CD series "degenerate" art the name of Schreker has (along with Zelimsky) gathered some momentum in CD recordings but less so as far as DVD. I gather that Der Ferne Klang is his masterpiece, but the only DVD is Die Gezeichneten. I would have preferred the former, but in a "leap of faith" bought the latter. At this point I have only listened to it once, hardly putting me in a position to make critical judgements but that's never stopped me before but I can claim to have listened to opera for over sixty years so that I am far from being a tyro.First off I read the comments posted regarding the cutting of around twenty minutes of the score. I gather that most of cuts are instrumental and given Schreker's great mastery of orchestration it is a pity that these cuts were made. Additionally I would have preferred a more conventional representation. I usually have enjoyed Lenhoff's productions of Lohengrin and Parsifal, but the libretto of the opera under consideration is not a model of clarity given the changes made, e.g., Salvago's cross dressing. On the basis of one viewing I see no sense other than it gives the artist something to do.The vocal line is not one that Schreker is inspired to invest much in the way of melody although repeated viewings may change my feeling in this area. Even Richard Strauss at his most arid moments brought more to his operas than Schreker, while they both share a mastery of opulence and orchestral beauty. Of course the story is not one that would appeal to Strauss, but I think his (Schreker's) inability to come up with some vocally memorable "tunes" will keep this opera from ever entering the repertoire of most companies; hence, a festival such as Salzburg will probably remain its sole venue. Perhaps Munich or Berlin would also consider it.I confess that one of the main reasons I was intersted in acquiring the set for was for Schwanewilms; her recording of the View Letze Lieder is quite beautiful. Alas Schreker has not given her any moments of transcendent beauty, but then that is a fault he shares with the remainder of the artists, all of whom are superior singing actors.Even though DVD's have been with us a short time, it is now quite easy to end up of multiples of many works, and I am guilty already of this. I am interested in hearing other works from composers (for whatever reason) who have been given short shrift from opera houses and recording companies and the DVD is an ideal medium of enlarging the experience of seeing works that one has only read about--many times as only a footnote. For this reason I would probably invest in a DVD of Der Ferne Klang.

    SOME QUIRKY STAGING.  FINE MUSIC.
  

*by A***A on Reviewed in the United States on November 12, 2012*

IT IS UNFORTUNATE THAT STAGE DIRECTORS FEEL COMPELLED TO "INTERPRET" OPERAS IN ORDER, PRESUMABLY, TO MAKE THEM MORE PALATABLE TO JADED CONTEMPORARY AUDIENCES.  THIS IS A CASE IN POINT. A SUPERB CAST, AN INTRIGUING SETTING, AND SOME INEXPLICABLE STAGE MANEUVERS, WHICH HAVE BEEN DISCUSSED BY OTHER READERS.  BUT THE MUSIC AND THE SINGING HOLDS.  SO, THE PROTAGONIST IS NOT MARKED BY A PHYSICAL DEFECT, BUT BY A PSYCHOLOGICAL ONE: HE IS NOT A DWARF BUT A CROSS-DRESSER. HE STILL IS A "MARKED" INDIVIDUAL.  FORGET STRAUSS; THIS WORK IS FAR CLOSER TO LULU AND OTHER OPERAS WHERE THE FEMALE ENDS UP PREFERRING A MACHO TO AN ARTIST. NAGANO AND BRUBAKER RE SIMPLY SUPERB.
