i was later a fairy of Oberons at glyndebourne in 1987 this is great and very rare footage to think i even wore one of those costumes after a re-stiching at wardrobe brilliant lol
ohh my God, this is the good one!!! This the program where I first saw Alfred Deller as Oberon, I love this!!! he's my favourite countertenor. Thanks for uploading!!!!!
@eveesth Oberon is a great role for countertenors. I saw Russell Oberlin in the Covent Garden production in, I think, 1969, so his performance is the gold standard to me. It was also a plus to have seen that magical-realist production when I saw the grim and grey production of The Dream at ENO last summer - I just shut my eyes and listened to the glorious music.
Really delighted to see some of this up on YouTube :) My mum was in this production and I watched our video of it until the tape died - I saw a revival a few years ago and it's still my favourite production :)
Yes, which performance is this? I have seen this production in its entirety, but I don't know which company it is, so I can't find a video or DVD anywhere :(
Thanks for uploading this, my son is playing a fairy in this and has just been handed a score which he has to learn in two weeks, so your video is very helpful.
@najasplus Could you possibly send me this whole recording? I'm starting performances as a fairy on the 19th of May with ENO and I want to watch this as I don't think we'll get a recording...

Can you please post more. Maybe scenes with Bejun Mehta as Obron? Or is that a different recording?
