Secret affairs in an Italian summer: Cimarosa's Matrimonio segreto at Martina Franca

Federico Maria Sardelli conducts an historic production of Handel’s first Italian opera for London with energy and Baroque spirit. Teresa Iervolino takes the leading role in a convincing cast.

A new production by Pier Luigi Pizzi opens the festival in Pesaro with Giacomo Sagripanti in the pit leading a strong cast and powerful chorus.

Carmela Remigio excels as the Trojan Queen; Sesto Quatrini conducts a superb account of the music of a Calabrian composer who died far too young.

Las sopranos Anna Pirozzi, Ketevan Kemoklidze y la mezzo María José Montiel fueron las que se llevaron el estrépito de aplausos y la emoción del público. Exhibición de potencia y dramatismo en una obra poco dada en el teatro condal, sobre un fondo estético y sin tratamiento dramatúrgico.

With all the right ingredients – acte blanc, love intrigue, dramatic death – La Bayadère is a classic Russian ballet.
