Live, Video: Kritiken zu klassischen Konzerten, Opern, Ballett und Tanz finden | Die lustigen Weiber von Windsor

Gugelhupf-Tapeten und Tschinderassabumm: die Volksoper mach dem „lustig“ im Titel alle Ehre.

Barenboim conducts Otto Nicolai's Falstaff opera with a warmth and affection that is sorely lacking on stage. 

School’s out for summer and with it the opportunity for the Royal Opera’s Jette Parker Young Artists to showcase their talents in the end of term main stage performance. 

Otto Nicolai’s very German take on Shakespeare’s The Merry Wives of Windsor was a big hit in the mid-19th century but has been infrequently performed since then, largely because Verdi’s version, Falstaff, completely eclipsed it.
