IDOMENEO

Idomeneo is considered as the first of the seven uncontested masterworks of Mozart's dramatic oeuvre and it is perhaps even the most revolutionary and forward-looking of his work. In Kasper Holten's coherent production (Die Presse) Bernard Richter was a cultivated bright tenor with beautiful expressive moments (Kronen Zeitung). Valentina Nafornit�a performed the role of Ilia with passion and reached every height with ease and Irina Lungu portrayed Elettra as a great tragic figure and unfolded her soprano with verve in the final aria (Kurier). Conductor Toma� Netopil provided with the orchestra gripping moments from the virtuoso overture onwards (Kronen Zeitung)
