Excellent documentary on the life and music of belle epoque composer Jules Massenet, with wonderful performances from Rosamund Illing, Joan Sutherland, Frederica von Stade and others.

Extremely nice to learn more about Massenet narrated by Richard Bonynge and with fascinating comments by Massenet’s great, great grand niece! Thankful that my great aunt Sibyl Sanderson is given respect. She has been forgotten. Massenet composed Esclarmonde and Thaïs for her and she recreated the role of Manon. A shame she made no recordings.

How does such a great composer fall from grace and enter the precipitous depths of the realm of lost memories of mankind ? A true tragedy befallen upon all lovers of opera to have such a once renown master be forgotten.
