Performer: Ben Pickersgill

La mise en scène de Bruno Ravella comme la direction musicale de Laurent Campellone et la distribution ne parviennent à saisir que de manière intermittent le ton singulier de l'ouvrage de Massenet.

Simple solutions prove the best in Beethoven's "problem" opera as John Cox's staging is revived at Garsington.

Despite some excellent music-making, John Savournin's production is hindered by a laboured New York relocation.
