Miskolc Elisabeth
Since I know at least three people on my list will be interested in this:
Elisabeth - 1999 Miskolc DVD
I just got my hands on this DVD, and it's squee-ful in the extreme. The quality's good - some tape artefacts, but not enough to impair viewing (about on a par with the Scheveningen proshot, I'd say), sometimes a fractionally muffled sound, and good closeups. But that's not what makes me squee.
Elisabeth is Kata Janza, which means crazy goodness of the pointy sort with a good voice. Lucheni's what's-his-name from the 1996 proshot, and the guy is good - very intense with an operatic voice. He doesn't look like much, but you can't tear your eyes away. I can't identify the Rudolf (quite possibly Attila Dolhai judging by photos), but he's very nice and lyrical in Schatten. Franz-Josef seems forgettable from a quick look-see, haven't listened to Sophie yet, but who cares :P
What makes the DVD, of course, is a 23-year-old Máté Kamarás as a teenage version of his later Vienna reprise of the role od Death. He pouts, he screams, and of course he makes the best of the Hungarian choreography to paw his co-stars no matter their gender. And he makes the Hungarian makeup look good. He isn't yet as good a dancer as he later was, but still lovely.
He also has the craziest, most ballet-inclined angels ever. Mischievous too - by the way he sits on his "angel throne" in Letzte Tanz, he'd landed on his backside a time or two ;)
