Why oh why? Compare to les arts florissants for something that looks like choreography.

Great to see Opera performed with a minimalist approach. It is past time for it to become more approachable to the non-opera snob! Not that I don't enjoy the Grand performaces, I also like to see new ideas. This is definite different.

BTW, what did they spend on costuming and stage scenery? About a $1.98???
It looks it!

The music is by Lully, Louis XIV personal composer and whose music he personally danced in the ballets for the court. Regal, grandeur, profound, big production!
None of which is displayed here, outside of the music. So much concern about "original" instruments and performance practices but ZIPPO about the choreography of the time. "Gene Kelly dances to Lully" is about what it amounts to, all due respect to Gene Kelly btw.

I agree one hundred percent, Whiskey. By the way, the Christie production is available on DVD (surprisingly cheap.) Alas, the subtitles are also in French, but who cares. I just immerse myself in the music and watch the marvelous creativity of stage direction and choreography in that one. I also think that the chorus work in that production is as good as anything I've heard from the Met or the big houses in Europe. (I'm a chorister myself, and appreciate good work.)

C'aurait pas été mal si les danseurs avaient dansé...

@yglofmi Je suis bien d'accord!

@pscar1 no final das contas, essas interpretações modernocas já estão parecendo mais velhas do que a pedra lascada.
