Escape to the country: Bernstein's Candide at Iford
Charlotte Valori, 29th May
Jeff Clarke's characteristically high-octane style seems made for the sarcastic, hyperactive existential madness that is Candide in this little gem of a production for Iford.

A Fairy Queen at Iford
Charlotte Valori, 23rd July
An especially adapted version of Purcell's Fairy Queen, reworked by Timothy Nelson, inspires an exceptional reading from a talented young cast at Iford.

So foul and fair a day: Verdi's Macbeth at Iford
Charlotte Valori, 11th June
Iford's stone cloister makes a suitably eerie setting for a fine traditional account of Verdi's Macbeth, notable for its powerful male leads, from Iford Festival Opera and the CHROMA Ensemble.

Agrippina: Power-dressed and power hungry
Charlotte Valori, 25th July
Bruno Ravella's version of Handel's Agrippina moves the action from Classical Rome to the avaricious Eighties in a sharp, amusing night at Iford.

Some enchanted evening: La rondine at Iford
Charlotte Valori, 14th June
Rapturously romantic, intimate, moving, unforgettable: more English summer opera should be like Iford. And the garden is like Narnia in the spring.

Breaking bonds: a staged Messiah from Wild Arts
Dominic Lowe, 9th December
It's not Christmas without Handel's Messiah, and in the delightful Smith Square Hall, the oratorio is given a staging by Wild Arts which may not completely convince, but moves nonetheless.
