Pelléas et Mélisande

Descripción
Tienda Among modern recordings of the opera, this one is a safe bet, assuming you want a safe version of this opera. Unlike Herbert von Karajan’s oppressively string-heavy reading with the Berlin Philharmonic on EMI, this is a balanced, idiomatic account of the score, given a special luster by the Montreal Symphony Orchestra’s coloristic instincts and the warm recording acoustic at St. Eustache Church. Conductor Charles Dutoit has a fine instinctive feel for Debussy in general and this score in particular. The singers in the title roles–Didier Henry and Colette Alloit-Lugaz–have both come to terms with the opera’s enigmatic dramaturgy. However, it’s very much a symphonic rather than operatic performance, clearly a product of the recording studio rather than of the stage. Nobody completely inhabits the score, though with Debussy, even the sparkling surface is a vehicle of dramatic truth. Thus, any well-meant performance (of which this is certainly one) can never be superficial. –David Patrick Stearns
