The transfer of last year's Clemenza di Tito from Salzburg delights and irritates in equal measure.

Plus de quarante ans ont passé depuis la dernière représentation du War Requiem de Britten à Lyon ! Saluons l'Opéra de Lyon pour une nouvelle production remarquable.

Iolenta et Perséphone sublimées : vibrant hommage à la Lumière par l'Opéra de Lyon.

A double bill of Tchaikovsky's Iolanta and Stravinsky's Perséphone fares strongly in Aix-en-Provence. 

Zeffirelli's La Bohème at the Met never fails to charm. Balance issues aside, a beautifully sung performance by a very capable cast.

Having resoundingly declared not two weeks ago that I had never seen the CBSO perform so well, I am forced to admit that the orchestra have once again outdone themselves.

It’s no surprise that Turandot is one of the most performed and best loved operas of all time, coming in at number 15 in the Operabase league table. Its beautiful music and lavish orchestration, along with its very exciting and exotic story are what operatic dreams are made of.
