Kritiken zu klassischen Konzerten, Opern, Ballett und Tanz finden | Stefan Herheim

Mozarts Noten selbst werden zum Diener der Sache in einer genialen Inszenierung von Le nozze di Figaro eines des geschätztesten Regisseurs unserer Tage.

Bei seinem ersten Ausflug in die Welt Rossinis, verwandelte der norwegische Regisseur Stefan Herheim La Cenerentola in ein brillantes, lustiges Spektakel, gefüllt mit nachdenklich stimmendem Humor und herausragendem Gesang.

Die Rolle des Außenseiters traf einen Nerv bei Tschaikowsky, dessen Homosexualität ihn von der Gesellschaft entfremdete

In der Wiederaufnahme von Stefan Herheims Inszenierung fällt die Kunst (wieder) aus dem Rahmen und hat dabei vor allem musikalisch einiges an Feuer zu bieten.

Lady Gaga + Captain Jack Sparrow = Xerxes. Nach dieser Formel inszenierte Stefan Herheim Händels Oper als barocken Bilderrausch, der mit großartigen musikalischen Leistungen zum vollen Erfolg wurde.

A revival of Stefan Herheim's production of Handel's Xerxes in Düsseldorf makes for a rip-roaring evening of theatrical comedy.

Herheim places the composer at the centre of his opera in a staging that's clever and erudite but somewhat cold; musical performances are mixed.

Herheim pulls us in unexpected directions, makes us laugh and makes us think as we enjoy fine Rossinian music and singing in Opéra de Lyon's production.

Dans le cadre de sa programmation estivale, l'opéra comique de Berlin proposait une nouvelle production de Barbe-Bleue de Jacques Offenbach.

Stefan Herheim's dreamlike production of Debussy's opera sets it squarely in the Sussex manor house that gave birth to Glyndebourne's festival. 

Stefan Herheim packs puns and gags into a three-hour long show, but less could have been more. 

With many costume changes, notably into a Sun-King with very prominent phalic sunburst, Houtzeel held centre-stage in the title role.

La nouvelle mise en scène de Stefan Herheim se joue de tout pathos et convoque une esthétique hilarante, située entre la parodie de Disney et l’humour acerbe des Monty Python.

Stefan Herheim's eagerly awaited production of Berg's Wozzeck distances us from the emotional heart of the tragedy by portraying the story as a hallucinatory death-room experience.

A mural depicting Etna erupting is the only hint of Sicily in Stefan Herheim’s opulent staging, returning to Covent Garden for the first time since the Royal Opera’s Verdi bicentenary celebrations in 2013. 

Entre l'imaginaire de Pedro Calderon, celui de Lewis Caroll ou encore de Jonathan Swift, cette nouvelle production signée Stefan Herheim invite à la réflexion sur la frontière entre folie et sommeil, illusion et réalité, amour et raison.

La mise en scène de Stefan Herheim scrute l’ambiguïté de la nymphe tchèque dans une éblouissante production.

Zombie clowns abound in Stefan Herheim's uncomfortably comical and upsetting Copenhagen production of Alban Berg's Lulu.

For his fourth production for the new Oslo opera house, Norwegian director Stefan Herheim turned his attention to Richard Strauss’ one-act opera Salome. This production is a co-production with the Salzburg Easter Festival (where this production premièred in 2011) and the Teatro Real in Madrid.

Puccini is one of opera’s best loved composers. With so many popular titles to his name, it is somewhat surprising how infrequently his first great success, Manon Lescaut, is performed today. What makes this even more unusual is the opera’s universal appeal.

Manon, Mimi, Tosca and Cio-Cio San. Why does Puccini send these women to such heartless deaths? It’s a question which musicologist Mosco Carner answered in the 1950s with a speculative Freudian reduction (the composer apparently had a debilitating mother complex).
