So, 'Robert le Diable' from 1985 is a real treat for opera lovers, especially if you're into Meyerbeer's work. The TV broadcast captures a performance from L'Opera de Paris, and there's something about the intimacy of the small screen that adds to its charm. The atmosphere is rich with grandiosity typical of the period, yet it feels quite personal. The pacing ebbs and flows, drawing you into the emotional turmoil of the characters. The performances are quite striking; you can sense the weight of the roles. There's a blend of lush orchestration and dramatic staging that really stands out. It's not just a classic opera but a document of a specific time and place in performance history.
