Con un derroche de musicalidad, aplomo y entrega, algunos de los cantantes colombianos que han cosechado triunfos en el exterior interpretaron arias, dúos y tríos de reconocidas óperas de los siglos XVIII y XIX en la Gala Lírica de la Orquesta Sinfónica Nacional de Colombia en el Teatro Colón.

El tenor norteamericano Gregory Kunde se enfrentaba al doble reto de debutar como Turiddu (Cavalleria rusticana) y Canio (Pagliacci) en la temporada lírica de ABAO, en el Palacio Euskalduna de Bilbao, con una cuidada dirección musical de Alessandro Vitiello y una nueva producción de corte clásico a cargo de Joan Anton Rechi.

What do you do when your planned season opener bites the dust? Fly in the stars and put on a concert performance of a verismo favourite. 

Exceptional singing, an auspicious conducting debut and a staging that is both sophisticated and emotionally involving make this production an unequivocal winner.

Mascagni's stirring music and gripping storyline cast their spell over a festival audience at the edge of the Baltic Sea.

Notwithstanding director Pippo Delbono's narcissistic excesses, his staging confirmed itself as effective and penetrating.

An embarrassingly trite libretto proves unsalvageable, even with a committed cast of singers.

Olga Peretyatko, s’affirme comme une grande diva avec un timbre d’une rare pureté, une présence scénique envoûtante.

Pippo Delbono, an advocate of experimental theatre, tests the audience's patience at Opera di Roma, masking some enjoyable musical performances.

Sérieuse et sans condescendance, profitant d'un plateau vocal de premier plan, la mise en scène de Damiano Michieletto séduit le public bruxellois.

Zwei Verismo-Klassiker, die sich nach kurzfristigen Umbesetzungen auf unterschiedlichem Niveau präsentierten, wurden von Roberto Alagna in Höchstform zusammengehalten. 

David McVicar's uninspiring Cavalleria rusticana remains problematic, but a strong Pagliacci leaves the New York audience gasping. 

After its Christmas break, Cavalleria rusticana and Pagliacci return to the Royal Opera in Daminano Michieletto's arresting production. 

Even stronger than first time round, Michieletto's impressive staging is complemented by an outstanding double role debut from Hymel and a heartbreaking Santuzza from Elīna Garanča.

Opera North's Little Greats festival continues with two deeply contrasting short operas - a grimly tragic and austere version of Macagni's Cavalleria rusticana and a frothy and hilarious production of Gilbert and Sullivan's Trial by Jury.

Opera in the City puts two key short works side by side, both duos, to create an evening of contrasting voices in which mature, selfish passion quails before youthful promise. 

For the final week of the CSO season, Muti led a stirring program of operatic excerpts by Verdi, Puccini and Mascagni, along with a rarity by Boito.

This was less a concert of two halves than one of two tenors: able to dramatise the music of Puccini and Verdi far more effectively than his earlier Mozart, Flórez came alive.

A voice with the proportions of a cathedral; a higher register that's entirely secure; an attention to text. Rosenblatt Recitals gave a tantalising preview of a singer who will have a stellar career.

A remarkable performance for State Opera of South Australia from Rosario La Spina as Turiddu in Cavalleria rusticana and Canio in Pagliacci was evidence of the brilliant tenor he has become.

One wonders why Emma Dante's concept, which explores the plight of women crushed by romantic catastrophes, is not done more often.

Damiano Michieletto's inspired intertwining of the standard double-bill of Cavalleria rusticana and Pagliacci makes for vivid storytelling, the whole supported by an excellent cast solidly directed by Andrea Licata.

Despite occasionally brilliant singing, the Norwegian National Opera fails to raise seasonal spirits with a dramatically inert Cavalleria rusticana and a shaky Pagliacci.

Proposition étonnante, la programmation des deux oeuvres dans une même soirée fait le pari des contrastes, mais parvient difficilement à se tenir à distance d'un traitement narratif très vertical et moralisateur.

Scottish Opera may be admirably committed to Mascagni's under-appreciated opera, but the musical quality and vision are lacking.

Clôture du Festival de Radio France de Montpellier avec une Iris de Mascagni un brin timide.

Leon Botstein and the American Symphony Orchestra revive Mascagni's Iris in a fully staged version in Frank Gehry's architecturally stunning Richard B Fisher Center at Bard College.

Perhaps not a masterpiece, but worth exploring, Mascagni's Iris returns to Opera Holland Park. 

Welsh National Opera may have reached the ripe old age of seventy but it's very much alive and kicking.

Craig Ogden in Castelnuovo-Tedesco's Guitar Concerto no. 1 is the highlight of the Northern Chamber Orchestra's varied concert of (mostly) Italian music in Macclesfield.

Benjie del Rosario ignites a thrilling Pagliacci, while Cavalleria rusticana is potentially as good but marred by intelligibility and balance issues.

Bryan Hymel and Irene Roberts explored the boundaries of love in the latest splendid performance in the Rosenblatt Recitals.

The Met’s revival of David McVicar’s year-old take on the perennial Verismo twins strikes out emotionally in Cavalleria rusticana but scores high in Pagliacci. Working on the same set by Rae Smith, flanked by the forbidding stone walls of the town church, Cavalleria is dark, dark, dark – the very picture of a poor, unhappy Sicilian hill town.

A gripping double bill of  “Cav &Pag” from Italian director Damiano Michieletto at Covent Garden includes a few surprise guest appearances. 

To celebrate its 50th birthday Dutch National Opera put on a festive tribute to the people that have made it the innovative and much-admired house it is today.

Elīna Garanča a incarné une Leonora somptueuse, dommage que les morceaux choisis ne furent pas tous du niveau de ce Verdi là ! Demeurent la beauté de la voix et l'intelligence de l'interprétation de la cantatrice.  

Opportunities to see Mascagni's Guglielmo Ratcliff come few and far between, mainly because the title role is an absolute killer for any tenor mad enough to attempt it. Step forward, Angelo Villari...

Mario Martone's Cavalleria rusticana—Pagliacci returns to La Scala, with results that do not always convince. 

The Met's new production of Cav and Pag boasted strong musical performance, but its production, despite some interesting ideas, was not completely successful.

Die Osterfestspiele bieten ein seltenes Konzerterlebnis, bei dem vom Grundschulkind bis zum Rentner Jung und Alt zusammen kommen, um sich von der Staatskapelle Dresden begeistern zu lassen.
