Live, Video: Kritiken zu klassischen Konzerten, Opern, Ballett und Tanz finden | Jan Philipp Gloger

Bei der Wiederaufnahme von Mozarts beliebter Da-Ponte-Oper ist nicht nur der Dirigent, sondern auch der gesamte Cast ausgewechselt worden. Dies sorgt für beachtliche Veränderungen.

 

Eine aktualisierte, sonst jedoch traditionelle Fassung des Fliegenden Holländers von Jan Philipp Gloger bietet in Bayreuth viel Freude, obwohl sie vielleicht nicht so lange im Gedächtnis bleiben wird wie umstrittenere Kost der Festspiele.

Dieses Werk wird nur selten gegeben, und zeigt doch alle der großen Opernthemen: Eifersucht, Identität, und wie väterliche und brüderliche Liebe sowie andere Werte aus den falschen Gründen beiseite geschoben werden.

Newly General Music Director Christian Thielemann and Jan Philipp Gloger bring Richard Strauss' Die schweigsame Frau to the Staatsoper Berlin for the first time, but la commedia is hardly stupenda. 

Anna Goryachova and Mélissa Petit shine as doomed lovers Tancredi and Amenaide, while Jan Philipp Gloger's contemporary setting has much to offer, but doesn't quite nail the landing.

Golda Schultz leads a fine cast in the fourth revival of Jan Philipp Gloger's Royal Opera production. 

Jan Philipp Gloger's production returns to Amsterdam with a superb cast led by Maria Bengtsson and Angela Brower. 

Kálmán's operetta brilliantly updated to the super-rich of today, with starry singing from Annette Dasch and Pavol Breslik.

In Il turco in Italia, Gioachino Rossini’s command of spiritedness and musical timing is well matched by the plot of lovers’ infidelities.

Everyone is in the know in Jan Philipp Gloger's “School for Lovers”, receiving its first revival at Covent Garden. 

An unlikely coupling of one-act operas by Zemlinsky and Puccini bears fruit in a staging that reveals their thematic parallels while leaving their obvious differences on show.

Fine singing from the quartet of lovers isn't enough to prevent Bychkov's slow tempi and Gloger's earnest direction from turning Così into a very long evening.

Dutch National Opera have given themselves and their patrons a smashing 50th birthday present – a production of Der Rosenkavalier that is a winner on all fronts.

Christian Thielemann and his orchestra were the stars of an excellent performance of Wagner's Der fliegende Holländer. 

A modern, simple production of Simon Boccanegra at Dresden's Semperoper, doesn’t interfere with the action.  

For any opera lover, a first visit to Bayreuth is something of a pilgrimage to the holy land. Musically, I wasn’t disappointed, as the Dutchman’s leitmotif rose softly from the invisible orchestra, soon to be enveloped by the swirling storm brewed up by Wagner and conductor Christian Thielemann.
