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

Die Bayerische Staatsoper präsentiert Alban Bergs Oper Lulu mit einem perfekt auf einander abgestimmten Ensemble, bei dem insbesondere Marlis Petersen als Lulu und Dirigent Kirill Petrenko überzeugen.

Toujours aussi riche en boules à facettes et autres bottes de cowboy, cette reprise de la production de 2021 signée Vincent Huguet brille également par sa distribution des rôles féminins.

Amanda Majeski reprises her peerless Kátya, but Katarina Dalayman's flint-like characterisation as Kabanicha strikes the most sparks.

Barbara Hannigan is better than ever in Krzysztof Warlikowski's iconic Lulu at La Monnaie – an historic event.

Sous la direction de Marko Letonja, l'Orchestre Philharmonique de Strasbourg, la basse Pavlo Hunka et le Chœur National d’hommes d’Estonie ont offert une interprétation bouleversante de la Symphonie n° 13 « Babi Yar » de Chostakovitch.

Eva-Maria Westbroek proves an outstanding Káťa in the Staatsoper's revival of Janáček's opera, powerfully conducted by Simon Rattle. 

Despite a condescending commentary, a strong performance from Anja Kampe as Leonore made this concert staging of Fidelio at the Royal Festival Hall thoroughly enjoyable.

Simon Rattle leads the LSO and a fine chorus and cast of soloists in Ligeti's masterpiece: surreal, madcap but touching the sublime.

Laurent Pelly exploits the satirical side of Rimsky-Korsakov's The Golden Cockerel at La Monnaie in a darkly humorous but colourfully performed production.

“He’s not an opera director. He’s a very naughty boy!” Three years after his surreal Damnation of Faust, Terry Gilliam tackles more Berlioz for English National Opera in the shape of Benvenuto Cellini, striking gold again.

The lights dimmed and an announcer explained that following the destruction of earth’s ecosystem, there had been a scramble to rocket bases and a rush to transport surviving life to the nearest planet, Mars.

Where could be more appropriate to see the story of Caligula, Rome’s most notorious emperor/self-proclaimed God, than in the Coliseum! Its purple SPQR livery made the opening to this performance all the more striking as Caligula, dishevelled, unhinged and not a little scary, crept on stage through the curtain in dead silence.
