Reviews of live performances

Waterperry Opera Festival – Mozart’s The Marriage of Figaro & Jonathan Dove’s Figures in the Garden

Isabelle Kettle’s production is a Marriage of Figaro for our times. Such is the opera’s ubiquity that, necessarily, it has to be tweaked or updated somehow to be made more ‘relevant’, but...

The National Gilbert & Sullivan Opera Company – Utopia, Limited – with Ben McAteer, Anthony Flaum, Monica McGhee & Paul Featherstone; directed by Jeff Clarke; conducted by John Andrews

After the hiatus of a couple of years owing to disagreements among composer, librettist and their impresario, Richard D’Oyly Carte, Utopia, Limited (1893) marked a return to form by Gilbert and Sullivan...

Opera Holland Park 2022 – Delius’s Margot la Rouge & Puccini’s Le Villi

Opera Holland Park’s double bill presents an intriguing pair of short operas by composers with seemingly little connection between them. But not only do they share themes of passion, hedonism,...

West Green House Opera – Donizetti’s L’elisir d’amore

Victoria Newlyn’s production of Donizetti’s comic opera (1832) makes good use of West Green’s ‘theatre on the lake’, positioned upon the island in the latter, and fronting on to the...

Longborough Festival 2022 – Francesca Caccini’s La liberazione di Ruggiero & Freya Waley-Cohen’s Spell Book

Francesca Caccini's La liberazione di Ruggiero dall’isola d’Alcina (1625) was the occasion for several firsts in operatic history - the first surviving opera written by a woman; after its premiere during the...

West Green House Opera – Mozart’s Le nozze di Figaro

Such is the enduring appeal and ingenuity of Mozart’s first collaboration with Lorenzo Da Ponte that it generally survives whatever is thrown at it in terms of staging or performance...

Bampton Classical Opera – Haydn’s Fool Moon

If the eighteenth-century Enlightenment project sought to return to first principles and restructure society according to the precepts of reason, then its exponents in the arts sought to achieve something...

Tanglewood Music Festival 2022 – Andris Nelsons conducts Mozart’s Don Giovanni

Although billed as a concert staging, the singers moved about, interacting, and singing from memory as they would in a full staging. There were missing elements, such as props, scenery...

Notre Dame de Paris at Lincoln Center

More than two decades after its debut in France, Notre Dame de Paris, this splashy adaptation of Victor Hugo’s saga of the Parisian underworld set in 1482, has arrived in...

Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center at Alice Tully Hall – Reicha, Beethoven, Ligeti, Françaix & Poulenc

Buxton International Festival – Hasse’s Antonio e Cleopatra

Hasse’s serenata Antonio e Cleopatra (1725) imagines the moment after the Battle of Actium when Mark Antony meets again his lover, Cleopatra, and they reflect on what fate now holds for them....

Verdi’s Otello @ Royal Opera House

Those who reach the final curtain of Verdi’s late masterpiece and feel emotionally drained will have witnessed something remarkable. Those unmoved by their encounter may feel emotionally short-changed. Such was...

Buxton International Festival – Rossini’s La Donna del Lago – with Máire Flavin, Catherine Carby & Nico Darmanin; directed by Jacopo Spirei; conducted by Giulio Cilona

Just as Walter Scott romanticised and packaged the Scottish past within a particular historiographical manner in his popular novels, which many composers immediately adapted for the stage to great acclaim,...

Buxton International Festival – Jonathan Dove’s Mansfield Park – directed by Rebecca Meltzer

Jonathan Dove and Alasdair Middleton’s adaptation of Jane Austen’s Mansfield Park effectively constitutes an operatic ‘costume’ drama, to parallel the many similar series which regularly feature on television to popular acclaim. This...

Calidore string Quartett Photo: Marco Borggreve

Calidore String Quartet & Wu Qian at Alice Tully Hall – Haydn, Mendelssohn & Brahms

Things got off to a bright start with a crisp and lively performance of the innovative second of Haydn’s ‘Sun’ String Quartets. Estelle Choi’s rendering of the cello solo, which...

Buxton International Festival – Donizetti’s Viva la Diva – with George Humphreys & Jenny Strafford; directed by Stephen Medcalf; conducted by Iwan Davies

‘Viva la Diva’ is, in this form, Kit Hesketh-Harvey’s winning version of Donizetti’s Le convenienze ed inconvenienze teatrali (1831) which satirises both the conventions of a provincial operatic company in attempting to...

A Tanglewood Diary 2022 – July 7-16

I spent ten days at Tanglewood, the Boston Symphony Orchestra’s summer home, which brings performers, teachers and students together, enabling music-lovers to experience a wide range of activities and also...

The Met Orchestra/Yannick Nézet-Séguin at Carnegie Hall – Berlioz with Joyce DiDonato

The curtain-raiser was an exciting rendition of the concert overture Le corsaire, which, unlike Symphonie fantastique, is not programmatic. Indeed, Berlioz did not confer that title, deceptively suggestive of swashbuckling...

New York Philharmonic/Jaap van Zweden at Carnegie Hall – Snider & Mahler – Hilary Hahn plays Barber

While the New York Philharmonic’s Lincoln Center home is undergoing extensive renovation, the orchestra has been performing at Carnegie Hall along with various other venues around the city. This concert...
