At the same time the work, on a libretto by Paul Griffiths, can be seen as a compositional adventure of the composer himself, unifying the various cultural worlds he occupies: a blend of Western avant garde and Oriental traditions. Pierre Audi’s mythical staging and Jean Kalman’s fabulous set design complement the composer’s own musical direction, forging the dazzlingly versatile soloists, the Netherlands Chamber Orchestra and Capella Amsterdam to a stunning symbiosis of elements across time and space, a true testimony to cultures intertwined in globalisation. \u003cbr\u003e  \u003cbr\u003e  Polo: Charles Workman\u003cbr\u003e  Marco: Sarah Castle\u003cbr\u003e  Kublai Khan: Stephen Richardson\u003cbr\u003e  Water: Nancy Allen Lundy\u003cbr\u003e  Shadow 1\/Rustichello\/Li Po: Zhang Jun\u003cbr\u003e  Shadow 2\/Sheherazada\/Mahler\/Queen: Tania Kross\u003cbr\u003e  Shadow3\/Dante\/Shakespeare: Stephen Bryant\u003cbr\u003e  Chinese\/Arabian dancer: Mu Na \u003cbr\u003e  \u003cbr\u003e  Netherlands Chamber Orchestra\u003cbr\u003e  Cappella Amsterdam\u003cbr\u003e  Musical Director: Tan Dun\u003cbr\u003e  Stage Director: Pierre Audi\u003cbr\u003e  \u003cbr\u003e  Recorded live at Het Muziektheater, Amsterdam, on 13th and 18th November 2008.\u003cbr\u003e  \u003cbr\u003e  Plus\u003cbr\u003e  Illustrated synopsis.\u003cbr\u003e  Cast gallery.\u003cbr\u003e  Documentary: The Music of Tomorrow – including interviews with the creative team and principle cast members.\u003cbr\u003e  \u003cbr\u003e  Reviews\u003cbr\u003e  ‘Tan Dun’s Marco Polo was, for me, a multi-dimensional experience which went beyond my expectations and indeed overwhelmed my senses… Here was an opera of our generation: a fusion of elements across time and space, a true testimony to the way our worlds have become intertwined in the globalisation process.’ Anne Ku, Bonjournal.com\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Opus Arte","offers":[{"title":"DVD","offer_id":46025395601642,"sku":"809478010104","price":32.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0614\/3423\/3066\/files\/1525338.jpg?v=1778286860"}],"url":"https:\/\/arkivmusic.com\/collections\/carmen-lundy.oembed","provider":"ArkivMusic","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
