Der Messias
Known as a creator of astonishing images, stage director and visual artist Robert Wilson delivers a magnificent production of Mozart’s adaption of Handel’s Messias.
Salzburg Festival: Il Trittico
Christoph Loy combines three one-act operas by Puccini into a fateful space, accompanying the audience on a journey from Dante's inferno to the transcendent peaks of heavenly beauty.
Salzburg: La Traviata
This recording of Verdi’s "La Traviata" from the 2005 Salzburg Festival – the uncontested and hopelessly sold-out highlight of the festival season – captures the triumphal performance not only of Anna Netrebko as Violetta Valéry, but also of Rolando Villazón as her lover Alfredo.
Salzburg: L’Italiana in Algeri
Moshe Leiser’s & Patrice Caurier’s colourful production of "L’Italiana in Algeri" with Cecilia Bartoli in the title role and Ildar Abdrazakov as Mustafà. Conducted by Jean-Christophe Spinosi.
