Definitive Lulu on Blu

By asdfasdfasdf on August 22, 2015

Format: Blu-ray Verified Purchase

Lulu is one of the best operas of all time and I have all three versions on Blu-ray. The other two versions both have their strengths, but this one is the standout, mainly because of the exquisite DTS-HD MA audio track which neither of the other versions have. If your audio system doesn't correctly decode DTS-HD MA (if you enjoy opera make sure it does. Only DTS-HD MA is a big enough container for powerful operatic performances. It can be hard to tell because if your system doesn't support it, your Blu-ray player will just send a reduced quality track and you won't even know until you hear it right. I know from bitter experience!), then the other recent one may also be a good choice. That one was a really colorful production and I thought Act I and II were better performed than on this one, but Act III is the best and this one nailed it. I would watch Act I and II on the other version and then finish off with Act III on this one until I got my audio fixed. Now there's just no comparison, this is the best Lulu hands down. The older Glyndebourne one that is just a pumped-up DVD version was an enjoyable performance but the audio quality was really pretty sad compared to this one.

Lulu is a introduction to modern music.

By Ultrarunner on August 20, 2011

Format: Blu-ray Verified Purchase

Alban Berg (1885-1935) came from a cultivated, well to do bourgeois Viennese family where reading and plays were part of normal life. Both his operas Wozzeck and Lulu were taken from successful stage plays which he adapted for his operas. Berg was clearly under the influence of Schoenberg from their first meeting in 1905 until his death 30 years later. Bergs style is more lyrical then Webern and Schoenberg. But he owes more to Mahler, then to the tortured intellectualism of Schoenberg.While at work on Lulu,he began to suffer from poor health. After the Nazi's came to power his work was declared decadent and was banned from performance in Germany and increasingly so in Austria. He gradually lost the incentive to finish the work.In 1935 he died of blood poisoning. In 1934 he scored the opera from the start and had reached bar 268 of Act 3 before he died.Helene his widow,in vain asked Schoenberg and Webern to finish and edit the full score.Only after Helenes death in 1976,could the Act 3 be completed. In 1979 Cerha's version was heard conducted by Boulez.

Lulu in the opera, may come across as a femme fatale, wrecking havoc in the lives of her three husbands and various male and female admirers, but is too childlike. Dr Schon finds her as a 12 year old selling flowers, educated her and later made her his mistress. She is dependent upon him as a lover and father figure.He treats her as a possession. He is preparing her for a life as a courtesan. Once we understand her past we can be sympathetic to her and her ways. In his music Berg brings her finally to obtain the status of a tragic heroine.

The orchestra of the Royal opera house is conducted by Pappano, who brings out the lyrical side to this serial work. It is minimalist in its staging, with modern dress.Read more ›
