Die Fledermaus at The Grange: Cabaret meets G&S
David Karlin, 20th June
A fine singing cast gives creditable performances in Johann Stauss II's most famous operetta, but Paul Curran's updating of Act 2 to 1930s Berlin takes the fizz out of the Champagne.

The Rake's Progress at The Grange: richly entertaining
David Karlin, 23rd June
Singing performances are excellent, the staging is well crafted and Stravinsky's eclectic score entertains from start to finish. But it's an evening's opera that doesn't touch the soul.

L’incoronazione di Poppea vividly brought to life at the Grange
David Truslove, 7th June
Terrific music making with a light directorial touch brings mixed results to Monteverdi's 1643 masterpiece.

Obsession at The Grange: The Queen of Spades
David Karlin, 23rd June
In a setting that might be The Grange itself, a production which steadily tightens its grip until a blistering finish.

A stylish Così fan tutte at The Grange Festival
David Truslove, 16th June

Entertainment ideal for country house opera-goers, enhanced by some fine singing and excellent playing from the Bournemouth Symphony Orchestra.

Tension accumulates in Handel’s Tamerlano at The Grange Festival
David Truslove, 10th June
Some exceptional singing intermittently enlivens Daniel Slater's production which, dramatically and emotionally, takes time to ignite.

Dominic Lowe recently completed a degree in Classics, and one of his great interests is the reception of Greece and Rome in opera. A regular opera-goer since his very early teens, he is particularly keen on the hidden operatic gems of the 19th century. He is largely based in the South of England.
