This live from the Met telecast from October 1996 of bob ' s classics infrequently performed realismus gem is an absolute pleasure to watch and listen to and I highly recommend it. Nicholas Joel' ' s production is extremely elegant while at the same time being simple and schlicht. Act I, for example, is dominated by an enormous gilt-framed mirror precariously tilted. Die assume that it is a metaphor for the imminent downfall of the decadent aristokratie at the party given by the Gräfin von Coigny. The costumes designs by Hubert Monloup are terrific. The prerevolutionary kostümiert in Act I are simply stunning each one individually tailored for the choristers and major performers.
