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

Promoting Leonore, the original version of Beethoven's Fidelio, René Jacobs made several choices of his own, only some of them justifiable.

Beethoven lovers were expecting an authentic recreation of the first version of Fidelio but instead they got Leonore à la Jacobs.

Selbst Beethoven und sein schwieriger Fidelio werden unter René Jacobs zu einem immer lohnenden Drama-Ereignis, auch dank Solisten und dem Freiburger Barockorchester in Höchstform.
