Intérprete: Laurence Meikle

Finally reaching the stage of the Venetian theatre, Benjamin Britten's first major opera meets with success thanks to Juraj Valčuha's conducting, Paul Curran's staging and an excellent cast.

One of Puccini's less renowned works returns to the Teatro San Carlo after over thirty years away.

A production apt for audiences who prefer a traditional, intimate staging of the most often performed of all operatic works.

An impressive performance of Verdi's masterpiece Un ballo in maschera based on of the original libretto.

The performance of Margherita d’Anjou seen at the Festival della Valle d’Itria in Martina Franca was the first staged in modern times.

Conductor Adrian Brown began his introduction telling us of how he’d loved Bruckner since he was a teenager, and then went on to say that Bruckner’s symphonies were like “cathedrals in sound”. I confess to closing my eyes in jaded exasperation.
