Zum Nabel der Welt: Il trionfo della Fama bei den Wiener Resonanzen

Jens Klier, 21st January

Accademia Bizantinas und Dantones Serenata-Aufführung eines alten Meisters schrammte nur hauchknapp an einer Krönung vorbei, an der selbst Oratorienliebhaber Thomas Bernhard sicher seine Freude gehabt hätte.

Giacomellis Cesare bei den Innsbrucker Festwochen der Alten Musik

Jens Klier, 7th August

Die Accademia Bizantina und Solistenriege nahm es mit den schillernden Fähigkeiten Giacomellis Operncast in Venedig 1735 auf – und gewann. Muscatos Inszenierung störte dabei nicht.

L'Agrippina impériale d'Ottavio Dantone à La Seine Musicale

Jean-Pierre Rousseau, 30th January

À la tête de l’Accademia Bizantina, le chef livre une belle lecture d'extraits de l'opéra de Haendel. La distribution inégale est dominée par Sophie Rennert, magistrale dans le rôle-titre.

Barrie Kosky's Agrippina is finally crowned at DNO

Eleanor Knight, 13th January

The Australian director's 2019 production of Handel's satirical comedy-thriller arrives in Amsterdam, with a cast led by the fabulous Stéphanie d'Oustrac.

Händels La Resurrezione von der Accademia Bizantina

Jens Klier, 25th March

Ein schöner Ostergruß des Ensembles von Italien nach Oslo, dessen Übermittlung mich jedoch nicht in jeder Stimme tröstete.
