An outstanding cast headed by Karah Son in the title role provides a fitting send off for Opera Australia’s much-loved production of Madama Butterfly in Sydney

There are Australian accents and idioms aplenty in this exciting new State Opera of South Australia opera being premiered in Adelaide.

Victorian Opera’s world première of The Riders, based on Australian author Tim Winton's novel, is an engrossing work of serious substance.

The Irish première of John Adams' Nixon in China results in an inspiring and triumphant evening in Dublin. 

Àlex Ollé's harbour production of Puccini's Madama Butterfly for Opera Australia is attractive and thought-provoking, with strong performances from Hiromi Omura and Georgy Vasiliev.

Much anticipated, ten years in the making, interrupted by some fairly momentous bumpy bits at Opera Australia such as the removal of Music Director Simone Young who comissionned the work in the first place, Bliss has finally arrived. And the good news is that audiences in Sydney received it warmly: the season of just five performances sold out.
