Performer: Harry Fehr

Martin Pickard conducts Leoš Janáček’s ever popular opera The Cunning Little Vixen in a traditional but effective staging by Harry Fehr.

Presenting a work like Carmen is a punchy move by a conservatoire. The Royal Academy of Music's production has conceptual weaknesses, but features some good singing. 

Harry Fehr’s directorial debut for ENO transposes Donizetti’s tale into a World War 2 setting. Rhian Lois charms and commands as Adina.

The evening’s most revelatory performance came from the young countertenor Aryeh Nussbaum Cohen as Medoro. 

A fine cast convinces in Dutch Reisopera's new Tosca, staged in a dystopian police state.

Stephanie Marshall's Romeo and Sarah-Jane Brandon's Giulietta make this production of Bellini's version of Romeo and Juliet utterly compelling.
