En direct, Vidéo: Rechercher des critiques de musique classique, opéra et ballet | Isabel Ines Glathar

Conductor Ivan Repušić leads a successful revival of Verdi’s playful masterpiece, with a solid cast.

People who claim that opera is nothing more than a glorified pantomime would have their prejudices confirmed at Deutsche Oper Berlin's Un ballo in maschera. This is, however, high praise. It’s an evening of camp entertainment, not a philosophy lesson.

Michaela Kaune, Albert Pesendorfer, Eun Yee You and Elīna Garanča transported the audience to a lost time and place, even while embodying their characters’ ultimate timelessness.
