Above all, Diana Damrau’s Constanze is the star of the show. As an artist of exceptional talent in both singing and acting—and aided by the direction—she delivers a wonderful portrayal of Konstanze that avoids falling into a stereotypical characterization. The blonde Olga Perechatsko is a young soprano from Russia. She is a prodigious talent who came of age at the Rossini Opera Festival and is already well-known among Rossini enthusiasts. In addition to her refined singing, she is quite a beauty. Belmonte is played by Christoph Strel, a German tenor who has been highly active in recent years as a Mozart tenor. Pedrillo is played by Norbert Ernst, a distinctive Viennese tenor. Osmin is portrayed by Franz Josef-Selig, a German bass who specializes in Baroque vocal music and Mozart, showcasing the depth of his experience as a veteran. Christoph Kvesht, who plays Selim, is a Berlin-born actor (incidentally, his father is the former renowned actor Hans Kvesht). He has performed the role of Selim on numerous occasions. As always, Ivor Bolton delivers a spirited Mozart. Christoph Loy’s direction reimagines the opera as a contemporary drama, freeing the characterizations from the stereotypical “Turkish” tropes. In particular, he gives Osmin a much greater presence. This is likely one of the finest productions of *The Abduction from the Seraglio* in recent years, a work for which various interpretive possibilities have been explored.\nKing International\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"C Major","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53595606712609,"sku":"814337010911","price":6390.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0568\/8482\/2076\/files\/814337010911.jpg?v=1790481894","url":"https:\/\/cdsvinyljapan.com\/products\/814337010911","provider":"CDs Vinyl Japan Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
