I puritani returns to Barcelona’s Liceu with Annilese Miskimmon’s production. Javier Camerena and Pretty Yende lead the inauguration of the season with a fine example of romantic bel canto.

A trusty and convincing version of the masterpiece, with a cast of well-matched singers.

Alessandro Talevi's gorgeous staging recreates Tosca as it might have been seen at its 1900 première. 

A movie-like staging for Puccini's most original opera at the Teatro San Carlo.

A production which did not make a strong impression in Naples, despite a first rate cast. 

The staging highlighted Carmen’s rebellious traits more than her sensual exoticism.

Excellent music-making over an indecisive but faithful Simon Boccanegra production opens Genoa's Teatro Carlo Felice new season.

Thoughtful character placement and a keen eye for detail contribute to a Carmen in Rome which is short on passion, but lovingly played.
