From the Théâtre du Châtelet, 2000:
Christoph Willibald Gluck's Orfeo ed Euridice starring Magdalena Kozená and others. With English subtitles.
John Eliot Gardiner chose to use Berlioz’s 1859 revision of Orphée, which adapted the tenor role of Gluck’s 1774 score for the contralto voice of Pauline Viardot, adjusting the register for a mezzo-soprano. Underlining his preference for this version, he performed the opera with the nineteenth-century period instruments of his Orchestre Révolutionnaire et Romantique. His regular chorus, the Monteverdi Choir, excelled vocally and dramatically in its elegant contribution to the drama.

When the historic Théâtre du Châtelet in Paris re-opened after a period of extensive refurbishment, the first two productions mounted in the theatre were Gluck’s Alceste and Orphée et Eurydice. “The center of these proceedings was not any singer, producer or politician but Gluck himself. To hear his songful art pour out uninterrupted over consecutive evenings was to understand the overwhelming power of melody. Gluck was not a master of complication, but he made his shortcomings into forceful music” (New York Times). Gluck understood how to put music at the service of poetry.
A key figure in the revival of Early Music, John Eliot Gardiner has long been a champion of Gluck’s French operas and is a great Gluck conductor. He conducted the English Baroque Soloists, the Orchestre Révolutionnaire et Romantique and the Monteverdi Choir. His performances with these ensembles – all of which he founded – bear the personal stamp of his scholarship and inspired musicianship and are noted for their zest and technical mastery. Gardiner received enormous critical acclaim for his musical direction of both Orphée and Alceste at the Châtelet, as did his orchestras and chorus.
Television’s top opera director, Brian Large, worked closely with Robert Wilson and John Eliot Gardiner to ensure that the translation of the live performance to the small screen was of the highest artistic and technical standard.
