Claus Guth directs a tormented, harrowing new Salome at the Met
Claus Guth's new production at the Metropolitan Opera, originally seen at the Bolshoi in 2021, moves the action from biblical Judea to the era of the opera's composition.
Oscar Wilde takes centre stage in Staatsoper's Salome
The Staatsoper revives a confused production by Hans Neuenfels, under the baton of Thomas Guggeis.
Neuenfels' bloodless Salome in Berlin
Hans Neuenfels new Salome proves a strangely non-committal affair at the Staatsoper, but Thomas Guggeis conducts impressively.
Starkly powerful Jephtha at Dutch National Opera

Mit ausschließlich historischen Dokumenten in alter, poetischer Sprache macht Brett Dean die historische Geschichte um Maria Stuart zur Psycho-Tragödie in Renaissance- wie Gegenwarts-Klang. Eine gelungene Uraufführung an der Bayerischen Staatsoper.
Recréation et décadence pour Samson au Festival d’Aix
Le chef et le metteur en scène reconstituent librement l'opéra de Jean-Philippe Rameau daté de 1733, sur un livret de Voltaire, dont la partition est perdue. Une proposition aussi puissante que pertinente.
