Intérprete: José de Eça

A thoughtful production from Martin Lloyd-Evans and magnificent playing from Matthew Kofi Walden and the City of London Sinfonia make the case for why Puccini's under-appreciated work is actually so sophisticated. 

Cecilia Stinton’s new production of Lucia di Lammermoor doesn't necessarily make best use of OHP’s performance space, but the singers excel. 

A 16-year interval sounds more like a resurrection than a first revival, but the return of Stephen Barlow's staging of Tosca is well worth the wait.

Mercadante's score proves to be something of a missing link between bel canto and early Verdi.
