The singing is good, and the acting is so accomplished that you feel you are watching 'real life' rather than 'a performance'. The orchestra plays well. If Louis Langrée's conducting lacks tenderness, it certainly accords with this very unjocular interpretation of da Ponte's dramma giocoso.(subscription required)
