Romain DumasAbout
Offenbach’s La Vie parisienne is a classic of the French operetta tradition and has remained justifiably popular since its premiere, with several DVD and CD recordings available today. This release brims with the lively energy we expect from Offenbach, with colourful decor and costumes by Christian Lacroix and the excellent Musiciens du Louvre directed by Romain Dumas, but it also has the advantage of far-reaching research and a new edition from La Palazzetto Bru Zane.
‘The cast is quite good, and because of the new version, there are two main roles, remarkably held by Franck Leguérinel (The Baron of Gondremarck) and Jodie Devos (Gabrielle). We know the comic vein and the sense of the scene of the first, whose strong and expressive voice serves a first-rate interpretation. The second is funny and sparkling, the voice is clear, and the character is made completely believable, especially since both of them have perfect diction… in summary, all those who do not know La Vie parisienne absolutely must go see this production.’ – Forumopera.com
