Any encounter with Wagner's artistic output is always a festive experience.
This is true regardless of whether one is watching one of these works of total art in an exciting production with sets and costumes or if it is memorable excerpts from the composer's great works that we are bringing to life, like on this occasion.
Die Meistersinger von Nürnberg, Lohengrin and Tristan und Isolde: ...

It has been said many times that great music does not necessarily require the highest quality text, and some go so far as to say that some music can even be hindered from developing fully when the melody is paired with words that claim a position of equal rank.
Of course, it is still pleasing to find the notes of the greatest composers coupled with literary source material of exceptional ...

Astonishing chapters of opera history: Viennese Classicism, bel canto, the grand large-scale mature style of the 19th century, and the music of turn-of-the-century Italy, along with a world-famous French baritone joined by a versatile soprano countrywoman of his and a celebrated Mexican tenor.
It is an irresistably appealing offering that an immensely experienced conductor, steeped in ...

Although in the last 30 years it was quite unusual for a symphony orchestra to start a concert with works by Bach, 20 years earlier this would not have been surprising at all. With the spread of the historically informed performance movement, modern orchestras 'withdrew' from the Baroque repertoire. Today, however, they are reclaiming this area.
The second half of the Hungarian National ...

From Mupa: Gioachino Rossini, author of so many opera buffas, including the unsurpassable Il barbiere di Siviglia, was more inclined toward humour than any other genius in music history.
Of course, the overall formula is not quite this simple: in addition to the comic operas there is also a series of serious pieces - and we must not forget that it was with such a work that he closed his ...
