In the spirit of our first production of the 2008-09 season, I thought I’d post this beautiful animation by Jonathan Hills set to Felicia Weathers singing “Un Bel Di Vedremo” from Madama Butterfly.
Here is a description of the L’opera Imaginaire series from IMDB:
Like Fantasia (1940) or Allegro Non Troppo (1977), L’OpĂ©ra Imaginaire (1993) is an assembly of animated short films based on classic music greats. Directed by some of the best European animators and artists, L’OpĂ©ra Imaginaire takes us through dance, theater, music and painting masterpieces. It uses several animation techniques, like stop-motion clay animation or CG characters.
