Die Deutsche Oper am Rhein inszeniert ein wichtiges Werk des in der NS-Zeit verfolgten Künstlers Viktor Ullmann.

Craig Colclough's Don Pasquale is arrogant, boyishly hopeful, outraged and pathetic by turns, his singing free of silly buffo mannerisms, the voice grand.

Farce, slapstick and cruel humour are to the fore in this Blackwater Valley Opera production of Donizetti's Don Pasquale. 

Setting the opera in the backyard of a suburban house feels refreshingly honest: the ridiculous and simplistic tale of the evil witch, the prince and the maiden is rightfully returned to the arena of children's games, and adults look on indulgently, with a wink.
