For teenage kicks: Mozart's Lucio Silla at Buxton International Festival
Charlotte Valori, 9th July

Verdi's Macbeth at Buxton International Festival
Charlotte Valori, 7th July
A searing, edge-of-your-seat spinetingler from Elijah Moshinsky makes the strongest possible case for Verdi's first Macbeth, ideally suited to the proportions of Buxton's beautiful Opera House.
