Reviews
"This production’s slow journey from darkness into the light…works well on the small screen, not least thanks to high-definition camera work and Sue Judd’s inspired direction for television. The real magic, though, is supplied by the onstage cast...In Dorothea Röschmann’s hands, Pamina emerges not so much a powerless victim of Fate but more as a passionate woman prepared to suffer in the nameof love. Her natural command of the stage is sagely employed by McVicar...Diana Damrau’s supremely sung Queen of the Night oozes class, while Simon Keenlyside’s profoundly human, touchingly sympathetic view of Papageno deserves an Olivier Award." (Die Zauberflöte - Classic FM)
"Antonio Pappano’s conducting of all three operas is exemplary, and all are well cast." (It trittico - BBC Music Magazine ★★★★★)
"...a major artistic triumph. Nothing in the score is more beautiful than the spectral nocturne that opens the final scene; nothing more exciting than the orgy than brings the second scene to its climax. Antonio Pappano’s conducting of its intensities is masterly, and the orchestra luxuriates in them... All praise to the cast too. Mariusz Kwieicien is imposing and impassioned in the title-role, vividly conveying Roger’s anxiety about his sexual identity... " (Krol Roger - The Daily Telegraph ★★★★★)
