Le Viol de Lucrèce à Toulouse : de belles voix pour un terne message

Von Arnaud Saura-Ziegelmeyer, 30. Mai 2023

Rarement donnée sur les scènes lyriques, l'œuvre de Benjamin Britten bénéficie d'une belle interprétation musicale mais pâtit d'une mise en scène trop peu engagée pour en traduire le message aujourd'hui.

The second Elizabethan age receives a noble tribute from the first in ENO's Gloriana

Von Roy Westbrook, 8. Dezember 2022

When done as well as this, a "concert staging" is not oxymoronic, but a precise term for a valuable mode of presentation.

Big city alienation and love in the LSO's Bernstein 100 season

Enchanted Wood: dream of a Dream at Glyndebourne

Von Mark Pullinger, 11. August 2016

“Out of this wood do not desire to go!” Tytania orders Bottom. Glyndebourne's revival of Peter Hall's classic production of A Midsummer Night's Dream is eerily enchanting, weaving its spell right from the queasy double bass glissandos, which slither into Britten's score.

"For the Fallen": BSO brings music linked to conflict to Winchester

Von Katy S. Austin, 18. Oktober 2014

Seven works by English composers created a journey from beauty to death as Remembrance day approaches. There wasn't much dwelling on the horrors of war itself, but plenty of human emotion and a sense of life sadly lost.

Refreshingly unfussy: Jonathan Miller's classic La bohème revived at ENO

Von Julia Savage, 29. April 2013

What to do with a “classic revival” that has, in the main, met the critics’ eye of approval? That was the question facing Natascha Metherell, the revival director of ENO’s production of La bohème, which opened this week at the Coliseum. The revival was in fact deftly handled: a production which remained faithful to Miller’s original vision, with honest, rather than over-egged, sentimentality.

Danger, sleaze, passion: Carmen re-imagined at ENO

Von David Karlin, 21. November 2012

Carmen has always been in my head as a “pretty” opera: lovely tunes, colourful setting, exotically alluring gypsy brushing up against hunky bullfighter and handsome soldier - not exactly French Grand Opera, perhaps, but a far cry from gritty verismo.

The last revival: The Magic Flute at London Coliseum

The house was full for the opening night at the London Coliseum, and there were plenty of whoops for conductor Nicholas Collon as he made his ENO debut. This year marks the 25th anniversary of ENO's celebrated production of Mozart's The Magic Flute, and this revival – the fourteenth – will be the last.
