of the chorus members who depict souls, demons and other creatures in his production. His staging is fundamentally inspired by sacred medieval iconography and the depiction of mythical animals found in Romanesque and Gothic churches. Combined with visually stunning effects, expert lighting and large video projections, the production grabs the viewer from the start and doesn't let go. What makes or breaks Gluck's opera is the role of Orfeo. Since Gluck's original Italian version is performed here, the role of Orfeo is performed by a mezzo, Anita Rachvelishvili of Georgia, a singer who unfailingly commands the stage with her infinite range of expressions both vocal and dramatic. Maite Alberola's Euridice and Auxiliadora Toledano's Amor blend their voices perfectly with that of Rachvelishvili. Item no. : PH00770336 Format : DVD (Color) Duration : 110 minutes StdBkNo : 9780769791975 Price : USD 60.00 PAGLIACCI PAGLIACCI - LEONCAVALLO LEONCAVALLO - PLACIDO PLACIDO DOMINGO DOMINGO Leoncavallo's often-performed short opera uses the play-within-a play device to explore the classic operatic themes of passion, adultery, jealousy and revenge. The great tenor aria, Vesti la giubba, expresses the anguish of the cuckolded husband who, as a performing clown, must make others laugh even as his heart is breaking. Zeffirelli's production is set in a contemporary urban environment, with fire eaters, children, animals, jugglers and acrobats. Placido Domingo, showing that he is arguably the finest actor-tenor of our time, gives a definitive performance as Canio. Recorded live at the John F Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts Opera House in November 1997. Item no. : DK00770337 Format : DVD (Color) Duration : 79 minutes StdBkNo : 9780769792408 Price : USD 60.00 RUSALKA RUSALKA - DVORAK DVORAK This highly acclaimed production from the Bayerische Staatsoper, a powerful and fascinating re- interpretation of Dvo? ak's fairy-tale opera Rusalka, was a revelation: the young, up-and-coming Latvian soprano, Kristine Opolais, whose performance was rightly hailed by the press as "one of the most vivid and striking accomplishments seen on an opera stage in a long time" (Vienna's leading daily Der Standard). With her supple and velvety soprano voice, her captivating physical beauty and her hauntingly moving stage presence, Kristine Opolais perfectly embodies the role of the water nymph who becomes a human being in order to find love. Item no. : ZH00770377 Format : DVD (Color) Duration : 189 minutes StdBkNo : 9780769788678 Price : USD 60.00 TOSCA TOSCA - PUCCINI PUCCINI - TEATRO TEATRO CARLO CARLO FELICE FELICE This production of Tosca filmed at the Teatro Carlo Felice in Genoa, with its stage set based on Adolf Hohenstein's original design for the work's premiere, brings together the best contemporary soprano-tenor combination Daniela Dessi and Fabio Armiliato – are set against a worthy opponent in the form of Claudio Sgura as Baron Scarpia. Such a combination of gentleman and scoundrel in one person is a perfect candidate to make "all Rome tremble before him." Tosca is a classic example of Puccini's three-person dramatic structure – a tragic pair of lovers juxtaposed with an interfering baritone! But these traditional roles are portrayed here in a much more realistic and psycho- logically accurate manner than usual. In vocal and dramatic terms however, the main attraction remains the title figure – and the reason why the work, became the archetypal prima donna opera.

Item no. : SC27340260 Format : DVD Price : USD 156.00 PEOPLE AND PRODUCTIVITY INNOVATION INNOVATION ENGINE, ENGINE, TTHE T HE With Tina Seelig � How reframing the question allows an infinite number of solutions. � Why rapid prototyping keeps your options open and your failures small. � The value of experimenting with un-useless inventions. Why do we need creativity? The world is full of daunting problems, and so are our workplaces. We need solutions. While the scientific method we all learned in school has value for discovery, a similar process for invention is not widely taught—yet is a critical component of true innovation. Dr. Seelig's model for the "Innovation Engine" allows us to alternate between discovery and invention. It incorporates the internal strengths of imagination, knowledge and attitude along with the external forces of habitat, resources and culture. Dr. Seelig points out that each of 101 ________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Learning Rendezvous Limited Email: inquiry@learningemall.com Websites: http://www.learningemall.com & http://www.learningemall.com.hk
us has the capacity for innovation. We are born with imagination, work hard to build a knowledge toolbox, and are able to develop the attitude that problems can be solved. But our business structures must build unrestrictive habitats that set the stage for creativity, provide the resources to get things done and, lastly, support a culture that sees small failures as a source of data and rewards the courage to try solutions that diverge from conventional wisdom. Item no. : KE02460345 Format : DVD Duration : 48 minutes Copyright : 2012 Price : USD 95.00 MANAGING MANAGING ETHICS ETHICS Managing Ethics brings managers and supervisors into the same situations from our introductory video, Workplace Ethics, and supplements their ethics training with ethical leadership skills necessary for maintaining an ethical workplace. The benefits of working in an ethical company are well known. This managing ethics training video will help your managers and supervisors develop an ethical leadership perspective in order to sustain a culture of integrity among all employees. Managing Ethics replays the scenarios portrayed in its companion training video, Workplace Ethics, but this time from the leader's point of view, illustrating essential management skills. Your managers and supervisors will learn how to share core values in ways that employees can personally understand, live the values themselves every day, and take appropriate action—by acknowledging positive behavior or promptly correcting ethical lapses. Ethics shouldn't be taken for granted. Without constant attention, ethical standards can be weakened by small decisions that add up. This ethics training DVD gives your managers the tools they need to uphold standards and protect the integrity of your organization. Item no. : WA00300347 Format : DVD (Closed Captioned) Duration : 17 minutes Price : USD 239.00 PERFORMANCE JATHILAN: JATHILAN: TRANCE TRANCE AND AND POSSESSION POSSESSION IN IN JAVA JAVA By Robert Lemelson Practiced in Java for centuries, Jathilan is a folk dance that uses the power of music and dance to channel powerful and sometimes terrifying forces. Led by a spiritual guide and a whip-bearing ringleader, a group of dancers ride woven horses in rhythmic unison until they are entered by spirits. Once possessed they engage in a range of self-mortification behaviors until safely emerging from their altered state, left with no memory of the event and no lingering ill effects. The film combines footage of a number of Jathilan performances with interviews with dancers, spiritual leaders, anthropologists, and enthusiasts. This extraordinary practice becomes more than just spectacle as Jathilan is contextualized within broader processes of Indonesian historical, political and social change and the viewer is provided a window into the subjective experiences of those who participate. Multiple interpretations of Jathilan's significance ultimately emerge, from an empirical proof of spiritual presence, to a strategy of community building, to a resistant expression of folk identity.
