Despite the inevitable distancing effect between sight and sound, there is undeniable power in this version of the production. Full Review

The basic emotions of this telefilm are not bogus; it's the real Porgy, packing an emotional wallop that almost, but not quite, goes over the top. Full Review

Product Description:

One of the few productions of PORGY AND BESS to be released on video, this 1993 release is directed by the acclaimed stage director Trevor Nunn. With a stellar cast of performers including Willard White, Cynthia Haymon, and Gregg Baker, Nunn injects new life into the classic Gershwin opera. The London Philharmonic and The Glyndebourne Chorus add wonderful accompaniment to this historic black musical.
