OperaWeb [excerpt] --- This Otello was certainly intended to represents the peak of the current Turin season. The possibility of listening to the great Berliner Philharmoniker, undoubtedly the best orchestra in the world, conducted by Claudio Abbado, in an opera performance in our country represents an authentic "event," and we immediately say that the expectations were not only met but even exceeded by the performance of the Berliners. And certainly not to be overlooked were José Cura's Otello, Barbara Frittoli's Desdemona and Ruggero Raimondi's Iago. All were encased in the poetic directional vision of Ermanno Olmi and with the participation of the excellent Coro del Regio, flanked by two other choirs. The director's vision of the tragedy of jealousy was in perfect agreement with Abbado and with the interpretation of Cura, very intimate and introspective, slipping with wordless despair and desolate inevitability towards the final tragedy.
