Live, Video: Kritiken zu klassischen Konzerten, Opern, Ballett und Tanz finden | Stockholm

Nicht szenisch, aber auch nicht wirklich konzertant und mit durchwachsenen gesanglichen Leistungen wurde Puccinis Tosca an der Royal Swedish Opera gegeben. 

An intriguing programming of old and new works, covering the time period 1893 to 1976, which themselves contain elements of old and new, beautifully performed.

Reinhard Goebel conducts a perfectly fine, straight-down-the-line Messiah as Sweden re-engages with live audiences. 

What other treasure might be hidden in the attic? One find is surely Weinberg’s Trumpet Concerto, as performed here by Håkan Hardenberger with Andris Nelsons and the Royal Stockholm Philharmonic Orchestra. Dvořák completes the bill.

The Royal Swedish Opera revives Garpe’s production of Poulenc’s Dialogues des Carmélites with a committed cast.
