Stefan Blunier lideró una poderosa versión de Elektra que, brillante en lo orquestal y lo vocal, puso en pie a un público infundido por la intensidad del drama.

Müpa's Ring sees all-round musical excellence for a third night in row, which will be remembered more than the various distracting miscues in the staging.

Das Orchester der Deutschen Oper Berlin bringt beim Musikfest Berlin die Philharmonie mit Zimmermann und Wagner zum Leuchten.

As part of the annual Wagner festival in the Hungarian capital, Peter Seiffert and Allison Oakes star as the doomed lovers.

Kapstadt wagt den lohnenden Blick über den Tellerrand des Belcanto und zeigt eine Salome von begeisternder gesanglicher Leistung.

Frank Castorf's Soviet-era farm-setting does not obtrude on the emotional core of Wagner's Die Walküre, with excellent performances from Johan Botha, Anja Kampe and Claudia Mahnke, with superlative playing from the Festival Orchestra.

The first installment of Frank Castorf's controversial Ring is applauded on its 2015 revival at Bayreuth, but arguably the incessant visual action detracts from the appreciation of the music.
