Performer: Ruth Berghaus

Marianne Crebassa and Maxim Mironov shine in a revival of Rossini’s masterpiece, for an evening of great fun.

The inventiveness of Ruth Berghaus' classic staging is a clear as ever, even if this revival occasionally loses focus.

A classic production of Strauss' searing operatic depiction of the House of Atreus is revived with a particularly accomplished cast and musical direction.

Dans le cadre de son Festival Mémoires, l’Opéra National de Lyon propose une recréation de la production d’Elektra que Ruth Berghaus avait présenté à Dresde en 1986. Un plongée vertigineuse dans le vide ! 

The irrepressible man of the theatre and Intendant of one the flagships of German opera gives us an insight into what makes him and his company tick.
