The New Moon 1989 restored

This is a production of Sigmund Romberg’s “The New Moon” as performed by the NYC Opera in 1989. This was the third of his three best known successful operettas. The story concerns a French nobleman with revolutionary tendencies who indentures himself to a plantation owner in New Orleans. He is hiding from the French authorities, but is eventually found out and put aboard the ship “The New Moon” for return back to France. He fill in love with the plantation owner’s daughter who ends up in the same ship. A mutiny and the French Revolution intervene. The work is full of Romberg’s lyrical music. It includes commentary by Beverly Sills.

The sound is mono, but the video was properly deinterlaced and refocused to give the clearest picture.
