Grâce au Démon : Rubinstein sort de l'oubli à Bordeaux

Stéphane Lelièvre, 3rd February

Histoire touchante que celle de ce Démon à qui un Dieu particulièrement cruel refusera la rédemption par l’amour. Excellente distribution et mise en scène idoine pour cette belle redécouverte proposée par l’Opéra de Bordeaux.

Commanding Götterdämmerung brings Müpa's Ring to a blazing end

Orsolya Gyárfás, 18th June

With Iréne Theorin's Brünnhilde rejuvenated, the Ring receives a worthy finale at the Budapest Wagner Days.

Wälsungenblut: Schneider and Skelton shine at Budapest Wagner Days

Orsolya Gyárfás, 16th June

The pure magic of Ádám Fischer and the Hungarian Radio Symphony Orchestra delights with two brilliant leads, but others disappoint on the second day of Müpa's Ring.

Staging sorcery: Dvořák's Armida played straight in Wexford

Roy Westbrook, 23rd October

Dvořák’s final opera gets a rare staging outside its Czech homeland, at Wexford – the festival where dead operas return to life.

Konieczny's Wanderer outstanding in Siegfried in Budapest

David Karlin, 15th June

Müpa's Ring sees all-round musical excellence for a third night in row, which will be remembered more than the various distracting miscues in the staging.

Reuter and Schöck turn up the heat in Die Walküre in Budapest

David Karlin, 14th June

Six excellent singers bring out the best in Wagner's dramatic narrative, marred only by a Ride of the Valkyries that fails to convince.
