In the expert hands of both director Warlikowski and conductor Kent Nagano, the sequel to Bernstein's Trouble in Tahiti proves to be even darker and more dramatic.

Guest conductor Charles Dutoit returned to Los Angeles for a program devoted to one of the composers he is most closely associated with. 

The Mediterranean setting of Auber's work is recreated by director Giorgio Barberio Corsetti with its intriguing teatro-immagine, where video projections and virtual reality are predominant.

Andreas Homoki macht in seiner Inszenierung einen grossen Bogen um alles Spanische. Die Hauptdarstellerin Marina Viotti will keine Femme fatale sein. Doch Gianandrea Noseda lässt die klanglichen Trümpfe der Partitur ausspielen.
