A recording of the 2007 revival of The Turn of the Screw, Britten’s chamber opera based on Henry James’s novella of the same name. Acknowledged as the most refined dramatic music piece of its time the ghostly opera centers on the inter-play between innocence and corruption and throughout the piece there is an overwhelming sense of encroaching evil, brilliantly communicated in Britten’s orchestral writing. Camilla Tilling sings the role of the troubled Governess with conviction with Emma Bell and William Burden as the dark forces of Miss Jessel and Peter Quint.
Recorded live at Glyndebourne in August 2007.
Booklet contains full libretto and synopses in English, French and German.
