Performer: Krystian Adam

Cecilia Ligorio directs the first new production of Mozart's early opera at the Opera di Roma since 1988. 

Zingarelli's Giulietta e Romeo won the favour of no less than Napoleon I himself and a new production at the Opéra Royal offers an appropriately regal setting in which to see Gilles Rico's new production of this once famous opera.

Joana Mallwitz makes her Royal Opera debut in the pit as Sir David McVicar returns to direct this revival of his much-loved 2006 show.

A swan song of the early Baroque opera seria, Scarlatti's final opera flourishes at a festival that specialises in rarely performed works.

Kirill Petrenko launches the Berlin Philharmonic's “Golden Twenties” series with Kurt Weill's First Symphony and Stravinsky's Oedipus Rex.

Voices, orchestra staging: everything in this Ercole Amante is light and magic, to the great delight of the Salle Favart audience.
