Strongly cast Guillaume Tell hits its mark at Theater an der Wien
Osborn absolutely lives the part; he negotiated formidable heights, intricate passage work and the sheer volume of notes with style and clarity as well as colour and nuance.
Hector Berlioz' Les Troyens conquer Vienna
An epic night at the opera with Joyce DiDonato, which will be hard to forget.
Magical musicianship, but drab direction
Marlis Petersen's Alcina bloomed for a knockout “Ah! mio cor!” just in time for intermission.
Larcher's The Hunting Gun premieres in Bregenz
The restrained pacing of Larcher's opera suited the intimate setting of the Werkstattbühne.
Sacrifice to passion: L’incoronazione di Poppea in Salzburg
A wonderful cast conducted by William Christie in a new production of L’incoronazione di Poppea at the Salzburg Festival.
