Renee Fleming In Concert - DVD

Renee Fleming In Concert [BLU-RAY] 2 Pack Released 2018 product/publication from BBC / Opus Arte

In this powerful 19th century romance set in the American Northeast, Abigail (Katherine Waterston), a farmer's wife, and her new neighbor Tallie (Vanessa Kirby) find themselves irrevocably drawn to each other. A grieving Abigail tends to her withdrawn husband Dyer (Casey Affleck) as free spirit Tallie bristles at the jealous control of her husband Finney (Christopher Abbott). Together, their intimacy begins to fill a void in each other's lives they never knew existed.

Gloriously affirming the Salzburg Festival's long-standing reputation as a supreme musical event, this concert honors one of it's founding fathers, Richard Strauss. Rene Fleming, Christian Thielemann and the Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra unite for a program of song, opera and tone poem, genres central to the composer's extraordinarily fruitful career. Fleming interprets four of his songs with orchestra, including the deeply moving Befreit, and provides a substantial taste of perhaps her finest operatic role, Arabella. New vistas then open as Thielemann and the Vienna Philharmonic take the spectacular mountain journey mapped by the composer in his titanic Alpine Symphony.
