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.

Mariame Clément's hilarious and brilliantly original staging of Rossini's opera buffa is served with a generous helping of Rossinian bel canto. Who could ask for more?

The revival of Calixto Bieito's Carmen in Oslo proves a bumpy ride, with uneven singing and orchestral playing, saved by Katarina Bradić's captivating portrayal of the title heroine.

Despite an excellent cast and some glorious singing, Stephen Langridge's oft-revived 2012 production of Puccini's Madama Butterfly never quite takes flight.
