Performer: Maya Lahyani

The second installment in The Atlanta Opera's first-ever Ring Cycle benefits from the committed performances of veteran Wagnerians like Christine Goerke and Greer Grimsley.

Laurent Pelly’s darkly stylish production of Manon is revived with a strong cast of singers. In the title role, Lisette Oropesa demonstrated elegant and incisive singing, while Michael Fabiano was her virile and powerful partner.

Laurent Pelly’s staging provided some of the most memorable moments in this performance of Cendrillon.
