Tobias Kratzer gives his third Strauss production in three seasons at Deutsche Oper Berlin another contemporary spin. 

Set in a 1930s music school, Sergio Morabito, Jossi Wieler and Anna Viebrick's new production of Die Meistersinger von Nürnberg at Deutsche Oper Berlin has some inspirational ideas but they often get in the way of the music.

Conductor Ivan Repušić leads a successful revival of Verdi’s playful masterpiece, with a solid cast.

The Austrian composer’s rarely heard one-acter proves triumphant in an intelligent, moving staging.

The passion of Alban Berg's music under Donald Runnicles fights against a disjointed production by Ole Anders Tandberg.

Deutsche Oper Berlin's Salome was a mixed blessing: a magnificent Catherine Naglestad as the heroine, with good ensemble of singers and orchestra, but a thoughtful but far-fetched psychological interpretation.

Stage director Ole Anders Tandberg casts Carmen as the leader of a gang of human organ dealers.
