Notes & Reviews:
"Eva-Maria Westbroek's desperate housewife, sporting Jean Harlow hair and an Imelda Marcos wardrobe of shoes, steps out of her glass-walled bedroom to encounter a muddy world of male aggression. There isn't amuch room for fulfilled tenderness in her rough relationship with strapping foreman Sergey [Christoper Ventris], consummated to strobe lighting. Mariss Jansons excels not just in conjuring the full, focused spectrum of colours from the Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra but also in co-ordinating it tightly with all the soloists, so game to act out Kusej's extreme characterisations to the hilt, and a superb chorus. There's also a beautifully produced booklet and a substantial extra, Reiner E Moritz's documentary, calling on principals, conductor and director to guide us through the opera with a generous amount of detail." -BBC Music Magazine (5 stars)
