Intérprete: Douglas Boyd

La Orquesta Sinfónica de Oporto bajo la precisa e intensa dirección de Douglas Boyd ofreció un estimulante concierto con obras de Mendelssohn y contó además con la interpretación de la joven solista Diana Tishchenko.

Music Director Douglas Boyd conducts a performance of exceptional musical quality, and Louisa Muller's uncontroversial but passionate direction makes this Traviata one for the ages.

Simple solutions prove the best in Beethoven's "problem" opera as John Cox's staging is revived at Garsington.

Jack Furness directs a terrific new Queen of Spades at Garsington – haunting and harrowing. 

In the first and last acts, ladies entered with a train still attached to a bolt of cloth, which was then cut to length by an attendant. Was this production brought to the stage in a great hurry, allowing no time for costume fittings? 

Come for the shave, stay for the comedy. Christopher Luscombe's new production of Rossini's beloved opera buffa avoids overcomplicating the plot, letting the work's humour and the abilities of the principals shine.
