Live, Video: Find classical music concert, opera, ballet and dance reviews | English | Heinz Zednik

A welcome touch of Austrian end of year festivities in Tokyo as Heinz Zednik's popular production of Die Fledermaus is revived. 

It took Vienna State Opera almost 90 years to present Leos Janacek's Věc Makropulos, but in Peter Stein's production, it was worth the wait.

Janáček turned, after a life of much unrest and complexity, to a theme of apparent simplicity shrouding much more complex issues: a fairy tale.
