Live, Video: Find classical music concert, opera, ballet and dance reviews | English | Le Balcon

A concert staging of Saint François d’Assise at the Enescu Festival brings its human drama to life through striking visuals, pacy conducting and expertly drilled performances.

Brecht and Weill’s political satire could hardly be more relevant, but Thomas Ostermeier and Maxime Balcon's new production fails to do it justice.

Four down, three to go: Le Balcon’s accomplished staging of Stockhausen's Licht cycle reaches its most problematic instalment.

The evening left you in no doubt that in Donnerstag aus Licht is more approachable than many would imagine, as well as being a major creative achievement that is crying out to be explored by opera houses.
