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

Ana Sokolović’s Serbian a cappella opera is short on plot, but glorious musical variety, a talented cast, and an intimate space make for an engrossing hour.

Opera Atelier espouses truth in advertising: The Magic Flute, they tell us, is a Singspiel in two acts. You can call it a play with songs, a musical comedy, even an operetta, but hardly an opera in the traditional sense. Call it what you will, this is Opera Atelier’s fourth production of the work in the last 22 years.
