David Bösch monte une formidable nouvelle production d'Irrelohe de Franz Schreker, compositeur encore trop rarement joué. Sous la baguette habile de Bernhard Kontarsky, Ambur Braid se distingue dans le rôle d'Eva.

Dans le cadre de son Festival Mémoires, l’Opéra National de Lyon propose une recréation de la production d’Elektra que Ruth Berghaus avait présenté à Dresde en 1986. Un plongée vertigineuse dans le vide ! 

Manfred Schweigkofler's production places the drama in a surreal, timeless atmosphere at the Teatro San Carlo. 

Eine von Joana Mallwitz hoch motivierte Staatsphilharmonie und fulminante Leistungen der Solisten machten das sperrige Sujet zum Super-Saisonstart.

Damiano Michieletto schafft eine Inszenierung, die den Betrachter auch nach Ende der Oper nicht ruhen lässt.
