Simon Boccanegra |
|
| Teatro Real, Madrid | | | A legend comes home |
| This Boccanegra was built around the presence of Plácido Domingo |
| Simon Boccanegra | |
| The BBC Proms | | | Placido Domingo packs a punch in truly great Prom |
| Singing was magnificent throughout |
| An elegant Boccanegra, despite the reduced space |
| Terfel delivered his marathon role to satisfaction on all levels |
| Simon Boccanegra comes across as a magnificent creation |
| Domingo’s presence drew the entire Royal Albert Hall into the drama |
| As a totality the evening was often magnificent |
| Die Walküre |
|
| Los Angeles Opera | | | A triumph for all concerned |
| The Ring in L.A.: Freyer's "Die Walküre" |
| A pop critic takes on the 'Ring': Of Valkyries and vocal magnificence |
| All that matters is story and character |
| "Das Rheingold" and "Die Walkure" draw cheers without a boo-bird in sight. Yet. |
| A fresh start for the 'Ring' cycle |
| 'Die Walküre' and the shifting sands of dramatic restraint |
| Simon Boccanegra |
|
| The Royal Opera | | | Domingo digs deep for return |
| Domingo was clearly the centre of attention |
| One of those events when the audience holds its breath in expectation |
| The evening was not all about Domingo |
| A burnished baritonal Verdi tenor is not the same thing as a Verdi baritone |
| Boccanegra’s long slow death seems to presage Placido Domingo's own vocal extinction |
