A strong cast led by Hye-Youn Lee, Shengzhi Ren and Brad Cooper head a magnificent semi-staged Daphne, conducted by Stuart Stratford.

Romeo Castellucci's new production of Daphne for the Staatsoper reflects on our relationship with nature, subverting the perspective of Richard Strauss' opera.

The Wiener Staatsoper revives a beautiful production of Daphne that juxtaposes myth, dream and reality, with brilliant vocal performances by the two leads.

An eclectic programme from this Swedish orchestra which gave sharply defined performances in repertoire that, at first glance, had seemingly little in common.

A disappointingly po-faced and directorally hidebound production almost takes the shine off a superb Daphne starring Justine Viani, with an exciting Peneios from Welsh bass James Gower. 

Soprano Regine Hangler and tenor Andreas Schager made their Cleveland debuts in Strauss’s most difficult to cast opera, accompanied by virtuoso playing from the orchestra.

Torsten Fischer's Nazified production of Strauss' Daphne in the Semperoper Dresden may leave you confused, but it receives a solid performance. 

Vera-Lotte Boecker springt kurzfristig ein – und dominiert den Strauss-Abend am Haus am Ring.
