Seelenleben und brutale gesellschaftliche Realität mischen sich an der Oper Stuttgart zu einem bedrückenden Gesamtbild.

Sous la direction à la fois soignée, claire et ferme du chef britannique Ian Page, solistes, chœur et orchestre ont livré une interprétation à la fois énergique et sensible de l'œuvre de Haendel.

English Touring Opera's triple bill of early Baroque miniatures promised an intruiging evening but failed up to expectations. 

Immersive, direct and passionate Bach from English Touring Opera and the Old Street Band.

Conway's decision to render Handel's epic in its entirety was let down by a static staging and unnecessary repeats that masked the hidden gem-like arias.

Had you been travelling, in the mid 18th century, around the crowned courts of middle Europe, there would have been little debate as to who was the most celebrated opera composer and ensemble: Johann Adolph Hasse and his company at the Saxon court of Dresden.
