Anna Netrebko shines in Vienna’s timeless Tosca

Laura Servidei, 18th April

In a world where opera productions often stray into the abstract, the Wiener Staatsoper’s Tosca offers a refreshing return to tradition – and Anna Netrebko delivers a splendid performance.

Am Rande der Gesellschaft: Wozzeck an der Wiener Staatsoper

Isabella Steppan, 11th April

An der Staatsoper siedelt Simon Stone Bergs Oper im modernen Wien an, wobei die Inszenierung bedrückend aktuell ist. Und auch musikalisch hat der Abend viel zu bieten, insbesondere dank dem Orchester unter Franz Welser-Möst.
