En direct, Vidéo: Rechercher des critiques de musique classique, opéra et ballet | Charlotte Siegel

The Canadian Opera Company’s season opening production is musically excellent, but the dated, dull production adds little. 

After more than a quarter of a century, Janáček’s late masterpiece returns to the Canadian Opera Company, but falls short in charm, magic, and humour.

Canadian Opera Company’s revival of John Caird’s art-infused production is perfectly realised in singing, acting, and the orchestra’s vibrant yet velvety colours.

The COC’s revival of The Magic Flute is mostly played for laughs and makes an enjoyable, if undemanding, evening.
