Artiste: Leipzig Opera Children's Chorus

À l'Opéra de Leipzig, décors, lumières, costumes et orchestre prodigieux du Gewandhaus ont constitué un superbe écrin, enveloppant solistes et chœurs d'une Carmen très applaudie.

With an excellent cast and sumptuous orchestral playing, Oper Leipzig delivers a vivid evening of enjoyment.

Richard Strauss' Komödie wird in Leipzig im besten Sinn klassisch und doch herrlich lustvoll und ohne umdeutende Modernisierung wieder aufgenommen.

For an inventive production, fine singing and magnificent orchestral playing, this new Leipzig Die Frau ohne Schatten deserves every success.

Leipzig routinely honours its native son with performances of Parsifal scheduled on and around Good Friday, which tempts a state of ritualized enactment best confined to the opera itself. (Vienna maintains the same tradition and is a magnet for self-appointed enforcers of the Bayreuth applause customs and their confrontational silencing of the ‘transgressors’.
