From the ballroom to the trenches: The Land of Might-Have-Been
Sarah Noble, 15th July
Setting the life of Vera Brittain to the music of Ivor Novello, Buxton Festival's new musical is a welcome if overambitious showcase for them both.

Arcadia in the Peak District: Mozart's Il re pastore in Buxton
Sarah Noble, 9th July
Mozart's early opera seria may not be his greatest achievement – but lightness of touch from all involved highlight its charms in Jack Furness' new production.

For teenage kicks: Mozart's Lucio Silla at Buxton International Festival
Charlotte Valori, 9th July
The fashion for reviving Mozart's teenage operas brings a vocally dazzling production of Lucio Silla to Buxton, nevertheless hampered by the work's own lack of believable drama and some fairly flat staging.

Verdi's Macbeth at Buxton International Festival
Charlotte Valori, 7th July
A searing, edge-of-your-seat spinetingler from Elijah Moshinsky makes the strongest possible case for Verdi's first Macbeth, ideally suited to the proportions of Buxton's beautiful Opera House.
*****
Games of Thrones: Handel's Tamerlano
Dominic Lowe, 10th July
Handel's psychotic Tartar leader and bedhopping nobles are well served in an excellent collaboration between the Buxton Festival and the English Concert with some outstanding singing from Marie Lys and Owen Willetts.
