Performer: Michael Wilmering

Adela Zaharia is cast as a Violetta for whom the party never stops in this revival of Tatjana Gürbaca's busy staging at Dutch National Opera. 

Mezzo J'Nai Bridges stuns in the title role of Bizet's opera, returning to Amsterdam in Robert Carsen's celebrated staging. 

An emotional work, structured like a strident television documentary tailored to a young audience.

Director Ola Mafaalani has created an absorbing and completely cinematic version of the opera, combining stationary and handheld cameras to create a pictorial variety of perspectives and expressionistic framing

Orchestra and singers reached great heights in this highly lyrical and dramatically flowing Frau ohne Schatten conducted by Yannick Nézet-Séguin.

The credits for this new production directed by Olivier Py raised high expectations that were only partially met on opening night.
