Intérprete: Tai Oney

A series of ill-advised staging choices leads to a disappointingly drab performance of Monteverdi's Homeric epic.

A young, vibrant cast brings to life a rarely performed Baroque opera, in the production from the Festival d'Aix-en-Provence.

Don't attempt to plough through the synopsis, but enjoy Cavalli's sexy score, persuasively performed in Jean Bellorini's modern staging. 

Malgré son évident intérêt musical, La Calisto a jusqu’ici attiré l’attention des metteurs en scène avant tout pour les jeux sur les registres et le(s) genre(s) que le livret de Giovanni Faustini, basé sur les Métamorphoses, laissait entrevoir.

Benjamin Britten's Death in Venice at the Deutsche Oper Berlin in an outstanding new production by Graham Vick and Donald Runnicles.

Clever staging and a high standard of acting does much to happily while away the three hours of this baroque opera in the second of ETO's Baroque extravaganza.
