Rigoletto : 4 of 5
5.12.2002
9:13 PM | Link
One of my favorite operas, Rigoletto is such a great combination of emotional drama and fantastic, exciting music. This performance was at City Coliseum rather than the Bass Concert Hall, and ALO did a fine job of making the most of this non-traditional space. It was kind of like watching an opera in a basketball court, but that made the distance between the audience and performers much more intimate. The performers were wonderful, even better at acting than singing (though the singing was spectactular, of course). There were some great special effects, too, including great lightning and water effects, all done with amazing lighting.
