After almost 50 years, the Teatro alla Scala presents a new production of Norma, with a great cast, some shadows in the orchestra direction and several failures in the production. 

After a heavily promoted but underwhelming opening night, the company gets the new season back on track with plenty of star power in Offenbach’s final masterpiece. 

A bit too much buffo and scenic sensory overload mar the otherwise new enjoyable Il barbiere di Siviglia in Vienna.

Floris Visser’s staging transforms Vivaldi’s biblical oratorio into a credible wartime drama. The young cast is proficient, and La Cetra Baroque Orchestra, conducted by Andrea Marcon, nothing short of miraculous.
