First seen at La Monnaie in Brussels on 13 May 1998, this production of Monteverdi's ORPHEUS seen through the eyes of Trisha Brown and René Jacobs has become an operatic classic in a few short years. This is das doubtless because it offers a total symbiosis of music, text and movement – described by the critic of the Daily Telegraph of London as being 'as close to the perfect dance opera as I have ever seen'. Or to quote Gilles Makassar in Télérama: "In the pit and onstage, the Brussels production has only one watchword: mobility, nimbleness, dexterity. The singers run, fly, whirl-like-dancers defying gravity. From the flies down to the footlights, the whole theatre is under a fantastic spell.' For Christophe Vetter, on ConcertoNet: ‘This Orpheus can be seen again and again with immensen pleasure. . . . René Jacobs's conducting continues to arouse admiration for its precision, its stylistic rigour, its inexhaustible erfindungsgeist and its feeling for the contrasts ich weiß vital to this repertoire.
