Massenet’s take on Goethe’s blockbuster novella of unrequited love and suicide is handled with great subtlety by Christof Loy and Marc Leroy-Calatayud. Benjamin Bernheim and Marina Viotti lead a starry vocal cast.

Benedikt von Peter's new staging of Bach's St Matthew Passion premieres at the Deutsche Oper Berlin, under Alessandro De Marchi. But despite the good synergy between director and conductor and a first-rate vocal ensemble, the production falls somewhat flat.

With an unsurpassed cast, devoted conducting and a brilliantly imaginative staging, the Bavarian State Opera's new production of Korngold's Die tote Stadt is a triumph.

In Richard Jones' production of Don Giovanni at Theater Basel, it was the singers alone who stole the limelight.

Idealización de tonalidades luminosas y pulso musical en las líneas románticas de Massenet, capitaneadas por el estreno de Xabier Anduaga en el papel del joven protagonista.

Le Theater Basel propose la Tétralogie à la façon d'un « festival scénique » digne du projet original de Richard Wagner. Retour sur les deux premiers épisodes d'une série qui est déjà une franche réussite.
