Antonio Pappano, Orchestra of the Royal Opera House - Karol Szymanowski: Krol Roger (2015) [Blu-ray]

Kasper Holten’s production (The Royal Opera’s first) of Król Roger (King Roger) brought the opera back to the London stage after an absence of almost 40 years. Karol Szymanowski’s masterpiece powerfully presents the dilemmas of culture versus nature and man versus beast, and movingly depicts King Roger’s inner struggles as he moves from an impossible life of repressed desires to the other extreme, giving in to his own demons. Meanwhile, Roger’s people, seduced by the promises of the mysterious Shepherd, are drawn towards totalitarianism and repression. Antonio Pappano conducts Szymanowksi’s opulent and beautiful score, with a cast including Mariusz Kwiecień as Roger (one of the greatest interpreters of the role today), Saimir Pirgu as the Shepherd, and Georgia Jarman in her Royal Opera debut as Roger’s loving queen Roxana.

King Roger II of Sicily - Mariusz Kwiecień
Roxana - Georgia Jarman
Shepherd - Saimir Pirgu
Edrisi - Kim Begley
Archbishop - Alan Ewing
Deaconess - Agnes Zwierko
Royal Opera Chorus
Orchestra of the Royal Opera House
