En direct, Vidéo: Rechercher des critiques de musique classique, opéra et ballet | David Butt Philip

Presented without staging, Seattle Opera’s concert Daphne places Strauss’ extreme vocal demands and saturated orchestral writing in sharp relief, offering a high-risk encounter with a rarely heard late opera.

Brett Dean’s Hamlet at the Met is a worthy addition to the operatic canon, and the production is a treat. 

Memorable role debuts from Dorothea Röschmann, David Butt Philip and Catriona Morison make Ariadne auf Naxos with the RSNO and Lothar Koenigs a night to savour.
