Filmed at the Opéra Comique, February 2013
Music direction and artistic collaboration: Laurence Equilbey
Stage direction: Michel Fau
Intended to set the spice of Parisian operetta against American musical comedy, 'Ciboulette' was Reynaldo Hahn’s first light score. It features the tribulations of the pretty market gardener Ciboulette, determined to earn herself a bright future without sacrificing her feelings. Her pursuit of happiness leads her to come across a whole collection of typical characters from the Paris of the Belle Epoque, from the humblest to the most distinguished.
32-pp booklet
Extra features: 31 mins - interviews with Laurence Equilbey, Michel Fau, Agnès Terrier, Jérôme Deschamps and Julie Fuchs
“Michael Fau [stage director] has created a scintillating mise-en-scène, allowing all the crazy events to unfold with precise blocking but also with the sheer sparkle that is the essential ingredient if Ciboulette is to work its magic…The attractive choristers sing and act with the requisite gusto, and the orchestra balances fizziness with lyricism under the expert direction of Laurence Equilbey.” International Record Review
