But unlike his imposing appearance, he was actually ruled by fear and jealousy. It was a young man, David, who appeared to him. He married David, a mere commoner, as if he were his son, but Saul, who was envious of David's strength and popularity, ended up plotting to kill David. Fortunately, David escapes the plot, but Saul seeks help from God and a priestess to clear his doubts. But the message he receives is that \"God has already given up on Saul. In his Glyndebourne debut, director Barry Kosky's production of \"Saul\" successfully visualizes this Old Testament tale of madness and despair with an energetic chorus, simple set design, and rococo costumes. In addition to the passionate singing of the singers, the Baroque dance in praise of God in the final act and the sharp sound of the Age of Inquiry Orchestra conducted by Bolton are also worth listening to.Originally written as an oratorio, a high level of choral singing is required for this work to be successful, and the Glyndebourne Choir responds with an unquestionable ensemble.
