Stravinsky’s fable of desire and downfall receives a meticulously unified staging in Glimmerglass’s 50th season.

Glimmerglass Opera Festival’s production of Candide leans heavily on a dry comedic sensibility, which most of the cast execute admirably.

In place of a full musical, this revue highlighted classic and contemporary songs that celebrate places and cultures, although some selections seemed questionable out of context.

Rising mezzo-soprano Raehann Bryce-Davis offers a gorgeously sung and grippingly acted portrait of Verdi's gypsy. 

Set in New Orleans during the Jazz Age, this riff on Offenbach's La Périchole captures the festive spirit of the summer, despite some tired jokes.

Strong singing but a stellar orchestra and staging make for a riveting production at the Kennedy Center. 

Lots of people talk about keeping opera relevant. WNO shows why this opera always has been.
