Parallel symmetries and random synchronicities at Festival d’Aix

Pwyll ap Sion, 13th July

In his 2016 opera Blank Out, Dutch composer Michel van der Aa has managed to create a new kind of operatic ‘reality’ that resonates powerfully with today’s Zeitgeist. Highly recommended.

MacMillans Ave Maria klingt in Amsterdam wie im Paradies

Michael Klier, 6th July

Der Niederländische Rundfunkchor gibt der Musik einen spielerisch-lebendigen Charakter und beeindruckt mit klarer Diktion und feinem Klang.

Musically superlative Das Floß der Medusa at DNO

Jenny Camilleri, 13th March

Ingo Metzmacher leads a musically formidable performance of Hans Werner Henze’s shipwreck oratorio. Romeo Castellucci’s staging engages the senses but remains emotionally distant.

Heroes and Beasts: Die Frau ohne Schatten in Warsaw

Hugo Shirley, 15th February

The Polish National Opera's first staging of Strauss' massive fairy tale feels like a bold statement of intent.

Destiny has rarely been gloomier: Treliński's new Forza at the Met

Robert Levine, 26th February

The first new Forza at the Met for nearly 30 years is lustily sung, led by Norwegian soprano, Lise Davidsen, and Igor Golovatenko as her vengeful brother.

Le côté obscur de La Femme sans ombre à l’Opéra de Lyon

Tristan Labouret, 17th October

Pour la première fois représenté dans la capitale des Gaules, l'opéra virtuose de Richard Strauss bénéficie d'une extraordinaire interprétation musicale qui vient compenser les limites de la mise en scène.
