Pelléas et Mélisande by C. Debussy

Act III, scene 1. In a Rapunzel-like image, this is one of the most disturbingly sensual scenes in opera. Taken from the Welsh National Opera production with Alison Hagley as Mélisande and Neill Archer as Pelléas. Conducted by Pierre Boulez and Directed by Peter Stein. One of the most visually stunning productions of Pelléas et Mélisande. The whole production looks like a moving canvass of impressionist paintings.
