Artiste: Frank Flade

Eva-Maria Westbroek proves an outstanding Káťa in the Staatsoper's revival of Janáček's opera, powerfully conducted by Simon Rattle. 

Jürgen Flimms Produktion unterstreicht die frech-fröhlich-Mozartschen Züge der Figuren der spielfreudigen Besetzung.

It’s not often that operas in English get performed in Germany, and so I was somewhat surprised to see such a large and important company as the Berliner Staatsoper taking on Stravinsky’s The Rake’s Progress.
