Music Reviews of Heggie: Dead Man Walking (Live recording of 2000 world premiere production)
Music Review: A Moving 20th Century Opera
Rating: 5 Stars
This opera is quite moving. While it doesn't have the showstoppers of a Donizetti or Rossini opera some of the reviewers are looking for (few, if any modern operas will as they are through-composed), it has some haunting music that is quite moving. Time indeed will tell, and I believe that it will show this opera to be one of the greatest from the recent additions to American opera....That is missing the point and missing the enjoyment of a beautiful work of American music. The performances are superb. Buy this recording and judge for yourself. You won't be disappointed.Music Review: The Opera is Fabulous.
Rating: 4 Stars
I recently saw the Opera in Detroit, Michigan. It was a wonderful experience (but isn't going to the opera always a wonderful experience?). I thought it was well done-- the music was a tad too 20-th Century for my tastes, but I still loved it!Music Review: Powerful
Rating: 5 Stars
Such powerful music. Listen for the reoccuring themes. Feel the beat as he's walking to his death.
SO powerful!
Music Review: Isa Lei
Rating: 5 Stars
The merging of the Fijian song Isa Lei into a deeply moving piece of sub-continental music is brilliant. Worth the whole CD
