Vasilisa Berzhanskaya dominates in Pesaro; around her, Davide Livermore’s visually striking production turns Rossini’s tale of war into a meditation on the destruction of classical beauty.

A production where vocal brilliance battles directorial gimmicks in Pesaro, with a superb cast led by Anastasia Bartoli and Lawrence Brownlee.

Jessica Pratt leads a strong cast in a beautiful performance of one of Rossini’s unjustly forgotten masterpieces, under the spectacular baton of Roberto Abbado, despite an unremarkable new production by Jean-Louis Grinda.
