Der Frankfurter Siegfried hält in seiner Inszenierung durch Vera Nemirova kaum Überraschungen bereit. Trotz volltönendem Klang bleibt die Ausgestaltung der Figuren zu oft zermürbend schematisch.

Vera Nemirova inszeniert an der Frankfurter Oper ein etwas abgegriffenes Rheingold. Das Frankfurter Opernorchester unter Sebastian Weigle jedoch bereichert mit schlankem Wagner-Klang aus klaren Konturen und sicher gesetzten Effekten.

After 45 years, Ambroise Thomas' Hamlet returns to Buxton in a gripping, psychological staging by Jack Furness. 

Hartmut Schörghofer's updated concert staging receives strong singing from everyone and a thrilling orchestral performance.

The third installament of the Ring in Frankfurt took full advantage of the architecturally ingenius set to complement great music making by the orchestra and singers.

Sebastian Weigle leads a somewhat light-footed but satisfying account with a fine orchestra and good ensemble of singers in an architecturally stunning production.

Dmitri Tcherniakov turns Shostakovich's "satirical tragedy" into a riveting piece of theatre, help by an outstanding performance from Patricia Racette and a top class orchestral performance from new ENO Musical Director Mark Wigglesworth.

Combine a pleasing production, in a stunning venue (The Academy of Music), located on one of the most picturesque streets in Philadelphia – the Avenue of the Arts – with the marvelous music of Mozart, and you have the makings of a lovely winter afternoon.As I stepped into the street, I remember wishing more February days could have been like this one.
