“La Femme sans ombre à l’Opéra de Lyon : anatomie d’une élévation”
« …Chef Daniele Rustioni listens to himself as a valiant Indiana Jones of the Straussian musical jungle. His direction makes the work an epic of dangerous quicksand and intertwined thoughts, which magnifies the features of sound deformities. The Italian touches on the sensoriality of the score, and sows the horizon, lyricism and eternity in a gesture that sometimes wants to convey too many intentions in one piece. How does it capture attention in the present time? By cleverly avoiding chromatic ostentation, by blurring the harmonic advance to attach himself to the heaviness of the intervals, by bringing a sizzle to the will-o'-the-wisps that he cultivates. »
