| The Teatro Regio in Turin presented Verdi's Macbeth, in a co-production with the Opernhaus Z�rich - the staging premiered in Zurich in the 2000-2001 season. ... The controversial production by David Pountney set the action in an abstract setting, highlighting the atmosphere of violence and moral decay of the Scottish court. Especially powerful was the banquet scene, where the director chose not to show Banco's ghost, thus making Macbeth's terror more striking. The orchestra was skilfully conducted by Bruno Bartoletti, and the chorus, prepared by Claudio Marino Moretti, also gave a valuable contribution./ Japonica |

| Zurich Opera |
| In David Pountney's hard-edged, post-modern production, with sets by Stefanos Lazaridis and costumes by Marie-Jeanne Lecca, the duality of man and woman is constantly brought into question.
This Macbeth is not just a story about the usurpation of a crown with supernatural intervention; it resonates with symbolic references to the battle of the sexes and throws into sharp relief the link between power and gender./ Review |
