    Format: 1 Online-Ressource (1 video file (15 min., 37 sec.))) , sound, color
    Uniform Title: Selections
    Content: Composed at the very beginning of the 17thcentury, Monteverdi's L'Orfeo is one of the very first operas in history, and was premiered in Mantova in 1607. Alessandro Striggio's libretto, totally inspired by its era, echoes the codes of love poetry in the Renaissance: it is an elegy of the beloved woman, who by gallantry is mostly named by her eyes. Stephen Stubbs goes back on the history of the beginning of the opera and presents his baroque ensemble. L'Orfeo is an iconic opera which is also very symbolic. As John Mayer Ainsley remarks, his character Orfeo is "representative of the singer, if not the complete musician" in his mythical form and moreover in Monteverdi's work, where he uses every vocal style available at the time to get through the ordeal of Eurydice's death and his journey in hell

    Uniform Title: Tamerlano Selections
    Content: In a long and detailed interview, conductor Paul McCreesh -- a specialist of baroque music -- presents one of the "greatest operas of the 18th century." The Ottoman empire has fallen and the emperor, Bajazet has been captured by the tyrant Tamerlano. The defeated Bajazet contemplates suicide, but love for his daughter weakens his resolve. Andronico, Prince of Greece and ally of Tamerlano, is in love with Asteria and she with him; so when Tamerlano gives him the newly conquered empire of Byzantium, Andronico asks only to remain at Tamerlano's side -- really not wanting to leave Asteria. Paul McCreesh gives a talk on the specifities of this piece and on his work on the score to transmit its tragic dimension. He also shares his experience with Plácido Domingo in his first baroque role! "He has this extraordinary dramatic energy, this incredible focusing of your attention when you watch him. I remember one performance, I was so amazed how he was singing a moment of recitative, I forgot to bring the orchestra in!"

The second act is an apocalyptical rendition of the testing during an electric storm. Peter Sellars chronicles the fall of modern world in a political and historical opera. His libretto and stage direction introduce a reflection on modern warfare and a criticism of the US foreign policy since 1945. In this interview, he is surrounded by television images of battles: "Music and poetry evoke a set of free associations; nonetheless I want for television audience those associations to also be sparked by the real fires, by the actual intensity of the fighting."
