An entertaining night of Baroque music, costume and movement, but above all wonderful singing, at the historic Orangerieschloss at Potsdam

Loyalty and misdeeds in the jungle of emotions in Handel's Poro, re dell'Indie.

Laurence Cummings leads the FestspielOrchester Göttingen, the NDR Choir and an exemplary set of soloists led by in a definitive performance of Handel's oratorio.

The Nederlandse Reisopera celebrates Ariadne auf Naxos’centennial with a superb new production directed by Laurence Dale which looks as laving as it is pleasing to the ear.

Englishman Laurence Dale’s Göttingen Festival production of Handel’s Agrippina, now presented in the second Brisbane Baroque Festival, is based on the political void between appearance and reality. 

Christina Pluhar led ensemble L'Arpeggiata in a concert of delightful sacred music from the Habsburg court chapel in Vienna.

Out of the swamp: Marcel Beekman rocks the house in Robert Carsen’s glittering take on Platée.

Opera Atelier espouses truth in advertising: The Magic Flute, they tell us, is a Singspiel in two acts. You can call it a play with songs, a musical comedy, even an operetta, but hardly an opera in the traditional sense. Call it what you will, this is Opera Atelier’s fourth production of the work in the last 22 years.

La soprano fait merveille dans l'ouvrage de Donizetti. La mise en scène du duo comique Shirley et Dino a quelques longueurs.

Insolent et haut en couleur, le King Arthur de Purcell revisité par Shirley, Dino et Hervé Niquet fait son come back à l’Opéra Royal de Versailles.

Pour ce rare objet musical qu'est Don Quichotte chez la Duchesse de Bodin de Boismortier, Hervé Niquet retrouvait à Versailles ses complices déjantés Shirley et Dino après un King Arthur mémorable. Encore une fois le chef d'orchestre s'est lâché dans l'humour décalé, mais la musique et le chant, servis par des chanteurs/acteurs au diapason, ne sont jamais sacrifiés.
