Valentina Carrasco's contemporary staging, with impressive sets and singing, makes for a remarkable show at the Teatro dell'Opera. 

Donizetti’s tale of one the Italian Renaissance’s objects of hate is well sung and superbly acted in ETO's new spring tour production.

A performance of highs and lows with a stellar step-in from Lidia Fridman as Lucrezia Borgia and a confused production by Ferenc Anger plays at the Palace of Arts.

The Jette Parker Young Artists take on their most ambitious programme yet, showcasing some of the most promising Verdian voices of the future.

67-year-old diva Edita Gruberova presents a devastating portrayal of a desperate mother supported by a strong cast in a stark modern production.

A split-level stage featuring an ornate stairwell and scaffolding was the setting for this the tenth Jette Parker Young Artists’ Summer Performance. Entitled ‘Veneziana’, the specially compiled programme embodied the visions of Venice dreamt by Rossini, Donizetti, Britten and Offenbach in six sets of Opera Scenes.

The ENO's production of Donizetti's "melodrama in a prologue and two acts" Lucrezia Borgia is notable for two reasons. Firstly, it's a new production of an opera by a major bel canto composer, but one that isn't performed all that often. Secondly, it's the operatic debut of acclaimed film director Mike Figgis.

Ópera de Tenerife ha presentado la Lucrezia Borgia de Donizetti, dirigida por Andriy Yurkevych y con Yolanda Auyanet en el papel principal.

L’œuvre de Donizetti entre au répertoire du Théâtre du Capitole : une réussite quasi-parfaite, portée par la mise en scène d'Emilio Sagi et par un plateau vocal d'une qualité exceptionnelle.

Wie üblich beendete eine weiter konzertante Oper den Opernreigen der diesjährigen Salzburger Festspiele und in diesem Jahr war dabei Donizettis Attentäter-Drama Lucrezia Borgia zu erleben. Der Belcanto-Klassiker begeisterte mit mitreißenden Melodien und hervorragenden Solisten.

Un festival de buen canto centrado en la figura de Mariella Devia. Una cantante que, siendo ya parte de la historia de la lírica, sigue expandiendo su carrera hasta lo impensable.
