Ukranian Mezzo wins Handel Singing Competition

L'adaptation opératique du film d'Ingmar Bergman ne se distingue certes pas par l'originalité de sa musique mais n'en demeure pas moins une réussite, dotée d'une grande profondeur psychologique.

Elisa Verzier, making her Glyndebourne debut, is astonishing as Violetta in a revival of Tom Cairns' 2014 production. 

Olivia Fuchs gives a powerful staging of Janáček's morality tale of the perils of eternal youth, with an excellent cast, but there are reservations about the title role.

An outstanding performance from Rachel Nicholls lights up Carmen Jakobi's compelling production of Korngold's exploration of grief.

David Pountney completes his “Verdi trilogy” for the company but although his staging has fluidity, it lacks an explosive ending... and the vocal performances disappoint.
