Artiste: Nina von Mechow

Janáčeks Oper hinterlässt in Stuttgart Beklemmung, aber auch Trauer und Wut über soziale Umstände, die den Menschen eine freie Entfaltung verwehren. 

In Jussi Wieler and Sergio Morabito’s pugilistic production of Ariodante, the singers needed as much physical and gymnastic dexterity as vocal finesse.

The revival of this nine-year-old production feels dated, but its three Rs – Ruiten, Rose and Rhorer – make it a worthwhile evening.
