 | | Description: | Sergey Prokofiev's operatic tragedy The Fiery Angel was never performed in the composer's lifetime - the music's brittle energy, drama and eloquent lyrical tenderness would re-emerge in his Third Symphony. The narrative focuses relentlessly on Renata, who is haunted by an angel who turns out to be the devil. Director Emma Dante describes the opera as an explosive mix of fantastical realism and endless confusion of nightmares, madness, sexual impulses and cultural clashes', and this Teatro dell'Opera di Roma production was acclaimed as 'a presentation of Prokofiev's masterpiece which sparkles in all it's grotesque glory"The Fiery Angel" on Blu-ray from NAXOS Audiovisual presents Sergei Prokofiev's intense and psychologically charged opera in a high-quality audiovisual production that brings its dark, expressionistic atmosphere vividly to life. Set in 16th-century Germany, the story follows the tormented Renata, haunted by visions of a fiery angel, and the writer Ruprecht, who becomes entangled in her obsessive quest. This Blu-ray edition highlights the opera's raw emotional power and modernist score with detailed sound, clear vocal presence, and a staging that underlines the work's themes of obsession, religious hysteria, and the fragile line between faith and madness. The HD picture preserves stage details, lighting contrasts, and the claustrophobic set design, allowing viewers to experience the tension and psychological depth that have made "The Fiery Angel" one of the most compelling 20th-century operas.
