"Largo al factotum of the city off." Too bad that the work is "The Barber of Seville", Figaro and even moves like a clown, as he has continued to make the actor (call singer too) Rolando Villazon: his interpretation of the limits of the grotesque Alfredo Germont ruined a beam that could be perfect. Villazon, in addition to not knowing how to behave on a stage (the credits after the undeserved applause very well have given proof of this), also showed they could not sing. The technique was totally non-existent and you could tell by the voice strained and almost screamed. His behavior has given me the impression of lack of respect for the work. Excellent
instead evidence of Eva Mei, grappling with the difficult and demanding role of Violetta Valery: the soprano, in fact, gave us an interpretation is extraordinary in terms of voice from that stage. With its beautiful and versatile voice and acting with his expressive and has sent large deep emotions, especially in the duet with Giorgio Germont, played with great elegance and skill by the great Leo Nucci. The baritone was wrong only pretend to slap Villazon Alfredo-after "Di Provenza the sea the land" (He could not give a true slap ?!?).
The orchestra played well, even if you cut a piece of "Farewell of the past and I have shared the choice to do the only right in the middle range of the second act.
Splendid costumes: elegant, refined and tasteful. Scenography acceptable, except at the beginning of the second act, the salad sprinkled here and there nell'orticello.
Overall the work deserved to be seen, especially with Leo Nucci, Germont authoritarian and conformist yet courteous and polite, and Eva Mei, Violetta a refined, elegant and exciting.
