Intérprete: Katarina Karnéus

The Royal Liverpool Philharmonic Choir star in Janáček’s Glagolitic Mass after an ideal Pastoral Symphony from the RLPO and Dinis Sousa. 

Who needs a stage, sets or costumes, when opera can move us like this? Agneta Eichenholz leads a terrific cast in a concert performance of Janáček's searing opera. 

Krisztian Lada's thoughtful production goes to the dark heart of ETA Hoffmann's stories, mixing Offenbach's deceptively cheerful music with staging that is always impactful and sometimes gross.

Richard Farnes returns to Opera North to conduct and Sam Brown directs a concert staging of Wagner's final opera, Parsifal. 

Katarina Karnéus displayed sovereign English diction, elegant musicianship and a sense of dramatic scale in Sea Pictures.

A semi-staged performance of the two early 20th-century modernist works at the New York Philharmonic featured excellent soloists, great production and an inspired orchestra led by Jaap van Zweden.
