Performer: Florence von Gerkan

Pierre Audis Inszenierung und das Sängerensemble angeführt von einem grandiosen Christian Gerhaher sorgen für einen denkwürdigen Opernabend.

Exceptional singing enlivens a flawed production, which takes liberties with the tone and tenor of Beethoven's sole opera.

Brecht and Weill’s political satire could hardly be more relevant, but Thomas Ostermeier and Maxime Balcon's new production fails to do it justice.
