Live, Video: Find classical music concert, opera, ballet and dance reviews | Matthew Burns

Michael Shell's sparkling new production of La Cenerentola, built locally, opens the season at the Lyric Opera Kansas City. 

Two charming operas featured splendid singing in a haze of choreography, staging and projections in a setting that had the feel of being live in a surround sound movie theater. 

The opera can be summed up by a line sung by the Countess in Act 4: “You’re killing her with all this noise.”
