L'interprétation de cette oeuvre est remarquable.Sans avoir la notoriété de celles de Brahms,Mozart ou Verdi cette messe des morts fait partie des chefs d'-oeuvre de la musique sacrée.Je n'aurai qu'un seul gros reproche : la mise en scène cinématographique qui présente à mon avis trop de plans d'ensemble symétriques.Quant à la couleur elle manque de brillance (ZONE 1 et NTSC peut-etre ?).J'ai mis cependant la note maximum.
This is a splendid DVD, spiritual rather than dramatic, deep rather than spectacular, always musical, very moving. In concert halls, there's often a tendency to emphasise the drama in this work. Trumpets on all sides, and all that. Well, they are on all sides here too, but tempos tend to the gentle, the chorus sings with care and passion, and phrasing is always loyal to the text. The tenor Keith Lewis is excellent. The sound engineeers have dealt with cathedral reverberation by softening the sound somewhat, so the experience is not quite as crisp as hearing the Requiem in the Festival Hall. But reverence does not soften the Dies irae and Tuba mirum, which are appropriately engulfing. Not quite as good as being there, of course, but I cannot imagine a closer recorded approximation.
Berlioz Requiem is undoubtedly his masterpiece and a landmark within what we coud mean as the ten greatest requiems ever made. I own Colin Davis audio CD recording, whose sound is much more bright. I agree with other reviewer from 2007. The sound of this DVD is so far and stuffy as a music heard throughout a closed door. I had to give my set maximum volume to try to feel some radiance. Bernstein DVD fails in sound as well. Unbelievable so an important work lacking optional video recordings, while we get many silly operas in BlueRay! PORTUGUESE: O requiem de Berlioz é ,sem dúvida, sua obra-prima e um marco entre o que entenderíamos como os dez maiores Requiens já compostos. Possuo o CD de C. Davis, cujo som é muito mais brilhante. Concordo com o outro revisor de 2007. O som deste DVD está tão distante e abafado como uma música ouvida através de uma porta fechada. Eu tive de dar ao meu aparelho o volume máximo para tentar sentir alguma radiância. O DVD de Bernstein também falha na sonoridade. É inacreditável que uma obra tão importante ressinta-se de opções em video, enquanto temos tantas óperas tolas em Blue Ray!
