Teenage Mozart’s Mitridate a great success at La Scala
Loading image...
Christophe Rousset leads Les Talens Lyriques and a stellar cast in a superb rendition of Mozart’s first opera seria.
A forgotten meta-opera at La Scala: Gassmann’s L’opera seria
Loading image...
Christophe Rousset leads a great cast and an even greater orchestra in Gassmann’s 1769 rarity in Laurent Pelly’s visually striking, but oddly subdued, take on a comedy that thrives on chaos.

Loading image...
Young countertenor Figuier gives an accomplished vocal performance, sometimes overpowered by the energy of Rousset and Les Talens Lyriques. Oboist Gilles Vanssons steals the show.

Not quite a premiere, not quite a success: Salieri’s Kublai Khan
Loading image...

Unhappy ever after: Gluck's Armide returns to Paris
Loading image...
Excellent performances and stage direction make a good case for an opera that's on the slow side dramatically.
