Live, Video: Find classical music concert, opera, ballet and dance reviews | English | Sebastian Kohlhepp

British vocal talent adds some very British glamour to the closing Avrotros Friday concert featuring Elgar's most famous oratorio. 

Dutch National Opera's superbly sang Così fan tutte is transposed into a teenager summer crush story.

In Germany, the Christmas Oratorio is performed with the same frequency during the holiday season as Messiah in English-speaking countries. In Boston, the BSO gives its first performance!

Director Peter Konwitschny's staging of Cherubini's Medea critiques rejection and mistreatment of refugees. A strong new German translation and a talented cast make this a must-see.

Brockes-Passion is becoming not quite the performing rarity it once was, and this outstanding performance at the Göttingen Handel Festival this year could hardly be bettered.
