Welsh National Opera stages Death in Venice for the first time... and it’s a triumph

WNO imports Edward Dick’s exceptionally fine production, which benefits from from superb casting and outstanding performances led by Natalya Romaniw. 

Fine performances in a punchy new production that coats this tragic opera in a large dollop of debauchery. 

Leading an international cast in a still-sumptuous revival in Southampton's Mayflower, Stacey Alleaume gives a sovereign performance as the ill-fated courtesan Violetta.
