Berg: Lulu Blu-ray (The Royal Opera)

The rise and fall of an alluring, destructive but vulnerable woman is depicted in Alban Berg's thought-provoking opera. Christof Loy's austere, minimalist production allows the complexities of the drama to unfold through the sumptuous, taut beauty of the score. Agneta Eichenholz and Michael Volle lead an all-star cast under Antonio Pappano. Recorded in High Definition with true surround sound.
