Initialement prévue pour janvier 2022, la collaboration entre le Gran Teatre del Liceu et l’Opéra national de Paris a finalement accouché en cette fin de saison de son très attendu Château de Barbe-Bleue.

Bryn Terfel propose un récital maléfique et jubilatoire aux Chorégies d'Orange !

Très attaché à la représentation picturale, Pierre Audi signe ici une mise en scène relativement classique, efficace, laissant libre champs à l’attention portée aux voix plutôt qu’aux divers éléments qui composent les décors, très figuratifs.

Pour la Damnation de Faust, Stéphane Lissner a réuni à l'Opéra de Paris sous la baguette de Philippe Jordan la crème des interprètes du moment, et notamment un Faust au style impressionant, pour lequel on se damnerait !

Terfel's performance as the legendary sailor is stronger than ever and, one or two issues aside, this revival of Tim Albery's production is a compelling account of Wagner's first mature work.

Deborah Warner's intelligent new Covent Garden staging provides the perfect backdrop for a strong singing cast in Britten's maritime masterpiece.

In much anticipated role (Kaufmann) and stage (Davidsen) debuts, this revival of Peter Grimes at the Staatsoper was much anticipated, despite a production that should be put out to sea without a paddle.

Sir Bryn Terfel relishes every nuance of the text, but Damiano Michieletto's reading of Donizetti's comedy is no laughing matter. 

A title role performance full of depth from Terfel and a barnstorming comic interlude from Tomlinson provide some great moments, but much of this Boris fails to rise above the ordinary.

Red-blooded performances from the three principals at Covent Garden, even if there are vocal misfires along the way. 

Las dotes interpretativas de Bryn Terfel salvan un recital en el que la música no fue la protagonista.

Hats off to Andreas Homoki, Artistic Director at the Zurich Opera House, for staging a musical around “the chill of ghostly shadows”.

Sir Bryn Terfel’s Falstaff is still a cherishable rogue as he takes on the title role in Robert Carsen’s joyous staging at the Royal Opera. 

At their recital at the Bergen International Festival, Bryn Terfel and pianist Caradog Williams presented a programme of overwhelming sameness and neverending joviality.

Mit dem Orchesterkonzert am Pfingstsamstag gelang den Pfingstfestspielen, nach dem großen Erfolg mit Ariodante am Abend zuvor, ein programmatischer Coup, der musikalisch überaus überzeugend war.

Holten's masonic lodge setting of Meistersinger gets a lot right but is occasionally uneven; Terfel and Hughes Jones are constantly good to listen to.

Dass Falstaff auch konzertant seinen spitzbübischen Charme behalten kann, zeigte das BRSO unter Daniel Harding: das großartige Ensemble ließ nichts vermissen.

Thomas Hengelbrock and the NDR Elbphilharmonie Orchestra open Hamburg's Elbphilharmonie concert-hall with a traversal of music through the ages, from a Renaissance motet to Wolfgang Rihm's latest work.

El Holandés errante sirve a la OCNE para desplegar todo su poderío sonoro en una noche en la que la Senta de Ricarda Merbeth robó el protagonismo a un desigual Terfel.

Dancing, jokes, a pogrom and Bryn Terfel balancing on milk vats. It could only be Fiddler on the Roof. Grange Park Opera took an eclectic combination and planted if successfully on the Proms stage.

Dipping my toes into the murky waters of the Wagner-fest at the Proms this year for the first time, I found myself confronted with the monumental second installment of the Ring cycle, Die Walküre.

A concert like this could have three possible outcomes: one, frustration at catching just a glimpse of a multitude of operas without the benefit of character or plot development or the embellishment of sumptuous costumes or stage sets; two, inspiration to delve further into the world of opera, nudged by tantalising hints of dramatic tension and a world of emotions; or three, sheer escapism into a

The New Zealand Symphony Orchestra really has the perfect Wagner sound. Their full, vibrant string tone and magnificent pealing brass were fully in evidence in a thrilling rendition of the concert version of the overture from Tannhäuser. Few moments in music are as exciting as the build-up to the Big Tune in this piece, and the orchestra’s performance here was barnstorming yet perfectly accurate.

Opera being a strongly visual art form as well as a musical one, the idea of a pure concert performance seems a little strange to those unfamiliar with the form.
