Shakespeare: "Macbeth" (Judi Dench) - sleepwalking scene Judi Dench ... Lady Macbeth Denyse Alexander ... Gentlewoman John Woodnutt ... Doctor from the 1979 TV version of the Trevor Nunn production by the Royal Shakespeare Company from "Shakespeare's Work" (1847) by Gulian Crommelin Verplanck: It was, I believe, Madame de Staël, who said, somewhat extravagantly, that the smell is the most poetical of the senses. It is true that the more agreeable associations of this sense are fertile in pleasing suggestions of placid, rural beauty, and gentle pleasures. Shakespeare, Spencer, Ariosto, and Tasso abound in such allusions. Milton, especially, who luxuriates in every variety of "odorous sweets" and "grateful smells", delighted sometimes to dwell on the "sweets of groves and fields", the native perfumes of his own England--"The smell of grain, or tedded grass, or kine, Or Dairy"-- and sometimes pleasing his imagination with the "gentle gales" laden with "balmy spoils" of the East; and breathing--"Sabean odours from the spicy shores of Araby the blest". But the smell has never been successfully used as a means of impressing the imagination with terror, pity, or any of the deeper emotions, except in this dreadful sleep-walking scene of the gulty Queen, and in one parallel scene of the Greek drama, as wildly terrible as this. It is that passage of the 'Agamemnon' of Aeschylus, where the captive prophetess, Cassandra, wrapt in visionary inspiration, scents first the smell of blood, and then the vapours of the tomb breathing from the palace of Atrides, as ominous of his apporaching murder. go here to see that scene of Cassandra from 'Agamemnon' (the chorus speaks of her smelling): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kPikNIfBGIo Tags: Macbeth Shakespeare Dench LadyMacbeth |

Schostakovic Lady Macbeth von Mensk 3.Akt 3.Bild Eva-Maria Westbroek, the uncomparabile Carlotta in our Schrekers "Gezeichneten" in Stuttgart as Katarina, directed by M. Kusej, who renewed the musictheater with his pitiless analysis of society, his intensive suggestive and elementar choreography of body language and abolishing a static and unindividual chorus, therefore I chose this sample of wedding scene.

Lady Macbeth Battle Royale: Callas vs. Rysanek Lady Macbeth's act I aria and cabaletta "Vieni, t'affretta" Maria Callas and Leonie Rysanek were iconic Ladies Macbeth. In fact, Rysanek made her auspicious Met debut in this role, replacing Callas who was quarreling with the management at the time. An excerpt from a review of the performance: "There may be talk as to whether Maria Callas would have been a more edgy, gore-obsessed Lady Macbeth had she not quarrelled with the Met management and lost the chance. Misguided fans of Callas shouted her name aloud (she's in Italy at the moment) in regret that this was not be her night. It was very definitely Mme. Rysanek's. Seldom does any soprano, especially on a debut register so dramatically. No matter that the Met held the lights, the curtain and the music to allow the third act ovation to exhaust its full force. The point is that the soprano had built up a magnificent head of audience steam. She may well cherish this performance forevermore as a, or the, peak of her career." (from Variety, signed by 'Land') Excerpts: Callas, live 1952, cond. Victor de Sabata Leonie Rysanek, 1959, cond. Erich Leinsdorf Tags: Maria Callas Leonie Rysanek Verdi Macbeth Vieni t'affreta t'affretta dramatic soprano aria |
