Nice to see a somewhat traditional rendition! I don't like it when productions are too modern.

[@AlexBNicoM]

Yes, but it is not accurate here.
Gounod is a french composer, why did they use red jackets, it was the color of the british army. They should have use blue one, color of Napoléon the greatest general of all time.

@@AlexBNicoM This opera is set in Germany during the 16th century, so Napoleonic uniforms wouldn't have been accurate either.
