The finest of Ostman's production of Mozart's last opera

I've always been curious about how La Clemenza di Tito would be performed by the Drottningholm Theatre. The many actors and singers with fine costumes make this performance a memorable one. Stefan Dahlberg is a very youthful and benevolant Tito and his emotions in the arias are breath taking. His mercy shown to Sesto sung by Lani Poulson is wonderful, though in the trial scene, Tito is frustrated by Sesto's silence to keep the selfish Vitellia's vicious scheme hidden and is very mean to Sesto. Lani Poulsson is a very true Sesto with some ornamentation to her own style and her gestures give off the needs for a hopeful and despairing youth. Anita Soldh potrays an alluring and a dominant Vitellia and her voice can sound commanding, yet very light and soft. Servilla, looking quite medieval in her costume and almost resembling a Pamina, is fabulous as is Annio as the unhappy and consoled lover and the faithful friend to Sesto. The tempos are generally swift as Ostman likes in his style; his musiciaqns surely are gifted to keep up with his jack rabbit pacing. This La Clemenza di Tito is a fine production and special to see!
