La
Gran Scena Opera Company of New York
VAI DVD 4270, $24.95
Under the artistic
direction of Ira Siff (aka Vera Galupe-Borszkh), La Gran Scena has become
legendary for its opera parodies. Their debut DVD release includes their
unparalleled take on Act II of Tosca. “La Gran Scena puts
on a very, very funny show. If the company’s dramatic satire is
right on target, its musical barbs are also aimed with deadly accuracy.
Best of all, there is nothing mean-spirited about La Gran Scena’s
wicked wit, which is always motivated by a love of opera and a joy in
singing. Bravi!” —Peter G. Davis, New York. 112
program minutes and 48 minutes of bonus material. Color.
