Gershwin/Porgy & Bess

“Een van de meest belangrijke Opera opnames in recente jaren” was de uitslag van Opera Magazine over Porgy and Bess, welke Glyndebounre Festival Opera’s aller eerste productie was van Gershwin’s meesterwerk. “Simon Rattle treats Porgy as one of the great opera scores of the 20th century… the entire performance bristles with a theatrical immediacy… The cast is a great one, led by Willard White, a dark-voiced, dignified, ultimately noble Porgy… and Cynthia Haymon’s lustrous Bess... This is a great souvenir of a great Glyndebourne event.”
