Fabio Ceresa applies his "Baroque divertissement" style to Haydn's oratorio The Creation, staged at the Festival della Valle d'Itria.

Fabio Ceresa returns to Wexford Festival Opera in flamboyant style with a production of Vivaldi's pasticcio. 

The acting was patchy and the singing ranged from serviceable to laudable in this dazzling new production at the Budapest Spring Festival.

Ceresa’s flamboyant production from the Festival della Valle d’Itria is revived in Venice with a strong cast under the baton of Diego Fasolis.

This production of Antonio Vivaldi’s Orlando furioso showed the audience what a Baroque opera is.

A tour de force performance of Donizetti's infrequently heard Maria de Rudenz at Wexford Festival Opera. Gilda Fiume shines brightly as the eponymous heroine amidst a stellar cast. A must see. 

Opportunities to see Mascagni's Guglielmo Ratcliff come few and far between, mainly because the title role is an absolute killer for any tenor mad enough to attempt it. Step forward, Angelo Villari...

Despite its happy ending, Vincenzo Bellini’s last opera I puritani is a 19th century opera permeated by deathly shadows, disenchantment, fading of love and sentiments forced or burdened by political intrigues.
