Nuevo Parsifal en Bayreuth

Juan José Freijo, 6th August

Precedida por una gran atención mediática, el templo wagneriano estrena producción de su obra más propia. Un propuesta en la que destacan las voces y que resulta superficial a pesar de sus ambiciones.

Alexandra Richter, 16th September

Die Spielzeiteröffnung am Staatstheater Wiesbaden setzt Beaumarchais Komödien in den Fokus.
