Live, Video: Kritiken zu klassischen Konzerten, Opern, Ballett und Tanz finden | David Adam Moore

Mit viel Zuspruch belohnte das Publikum der Salzburger Fespiele Thomas Adès, Tom Cairns und alle Musiker für eine stimmige und spannende Uraufführung. 

Adès opera resists explanation, and the ambiguity of the story drives much of its compelling nature. 

Luis Buñuel's derision at the sense of entitlement of over-privileged, self-righteous prigs shines through a high quality operatic adaptation.

San Diego Opera's season opening Pagliacci focused squarely on the character of Tonio, in Andrew Sinclair's intriguing vision for this verismo classic. But the vocal performances were lacking. A director can only do so much.

The Lyric Opera ends their 2013–14 season with a run of Rodgers and Hammerstein’s Oklahoma!, in all its frothy, proto-American, miked glory. Pluck is in evidence throughout.
