En direct, Vidéo: Rechercher des critiques de musique classique, opéra et ballet | Mario Cassi

Le pétillant opera buffa de Donizetti revient à l'Opéra de Paris dans une savoureuse mise en scène de Laurent Pelly, porté par une distribution de rêve. On y était. 

Gorgeous sets and costumes aren't quite enough to make this La traviata revival sparkle.

Three outstanding debuts and a warm and funny ensemble shine in David McVicar's naturalistic Marriage of Figaro. 

Only soprano Eleonora Buratto’s Mimì added real warmth and pathos to Mario Pontiggi's staging. 

A nimble, cheerful performance of Donizetti's dramma buffo in Naples, both by individuals and ensemble. 

Director Michieletto’s playful staging, Stefano Montanari’s expressive conducting and stylish singing from a cast of seasoned Rossinian singers make for a thoroughly enjoyable new production of the too rare Il viaggio a Reims at the Dutch National Opera.

If you let yourself be transported to director David Bösch’s strange world, you'll find an Elisir d'amore that is heartbreaking and uplifting by turns.

A joyful atnmophere in this production, thanks to the colourful staging and godible singing cast.

This L’elisir d’amore at the Vienna Staatsoper, with Lawrence Brownlee and Mario Cassi, saw a successful two-performance test-run before its return in March, again under the baton of Guillermo García Calvo.

This cheerful revival production of Il Barbiere di Siviglia showcases the operatic talent that Naples' Teatro di San Carlo can count on.

The opening of the Teatro Real’s season in Madrid has been anything but uneventful. However, Rossini’s Il Barbiere di Siviglia, the ever-pleasing opera chosen to welcome back an expectant audience, had very little to do with it.
