Just watched this lastnight and I'm looking forward to seeing it again. Good points are; fabulous singing and acting, sound is first class and the camera work is superb as it moves around the actors and the stage giving you a more personal experience rather than sitting static. Harding's conducting is fast paced but slows down at the right moments. This is a very energetic performance and for me perfectly suits Mozarts comic masterpiece.
If you are after a traditional version this is probably not for you as the set has been originaly designed to look like an old turkish backyard for some reason..? The cast are traditionaly dressed however and you soon get lossed in the performances rather than the stage as the use of lighting and the energy of the performances are enough to keep you entertained.
I'm unable to compare other dvd recordings, but have seen this opera live and own 4 recordings including Bohm's classic and I would highly recommend it.
