This a great and hilarious traditional staging of a Scarlatti mini-opera (he composed those???) If only other, major early music revival groups took a few notes on the Czech’s success here.
For example, using curtains and tapestries to give the illusion of space worked well for the 18th century - why replace it with regietheater? I think traditional techniques can be used in addition to a modern, or “more relatable” setting, so why not find a balance between both?
