Jenufa is still Janácek’s most successful and most often performed opera, and the Berlin premiere at the Staatsoper in 1924 brought the work its final breakthrough on German stages. This performance from Berlin’s Staatsoper Unter den Linden is “artistically unsurpassable. There are three reasons for this. Firstly, the cast [...], secondly: the direction [...], thirdly: Simon Rattle, the Staatskapelle and the chorus of the Staatsoper” (BR Klassik). “Simon Rattle revs up the Staatskapelle Berlin with a passion as if he had to fill a melodrama by Giacomo Puccini with bursting sound life” (Süddeutsche Zeitung). “A beguiling mixture of speaking articulation and tonal roundness.” --Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung
Victoria Randem was an absolute delight as Jano, who in Act 1 brought a few minutes of warmth, love and hope with her coming on thanking Jenůfa for helping her with her education. Her energy was infectious and so delightful, as was her voice, she was a true joy.

Curtain up for a work of superlatives: the Staatsoper Unter den Linden presents the ultimate challenge for any opera house with Wagner's "Ring des Nibelungen" and Wagner's "The Ring of the Nibelung". Christian Thielemann conducts the ring tetralogy, and Dmitri Tcherniakov, highly praised for his psychologically sophisticated stagings, guided the playful All-Star ensemble coherently through the panorama of figures, situations and events that unfolded like a universe, and consistently interpreted the sheer vastness and the diverse versions. Ring Cosmos "Musically, this 'ring' has put everything previously in the shadow everything previously present - and we are talking here of a performance history of more than a hundred years." (The World) In the third part of his ring tetralogy, Wagner builds fairytale motifs into his epic mythological story. The well-known narrative "The story of the youth who drew to learn the fear" finds its echo in the "Siegfried" as well as episodes from the medieval "Nibelungenlied". "

Trouble with relatives does not stop even before the Viennese high nobility:
The ungouted Baron Ochs on Lerchenau disturbs the morning tête-à-tête of his cousin, the field marshal, with her young lover Octavian, to ask her for help for his wedding plans more guided by pecuniary interests. He does not suspect that the Octavian intended for the rose cavalier will finally fall in love with the bride.
Multimedia artist André Heller gives his highly anticipated debut as a director at the Berlin State Opera with Richard Strauss' tragicomic Rosenkavalier and the critics are full of praise: "With his staging of the Rosenkavalier, André Heller sets a monument to flawlessness" (Die Zeit).
Maestro Zubin Mehta conducts the fantastic orchestra of the Staatskapelle Berlin and a "vocalist cast, especially with Camilla Nylund and Günther Groissböck, which is second to none" (Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung). Michèle Losier and Nadine Sierra make their role debuts as Octavian and as Sophie. A rose cavalier with dream occupation!
The stage design is designed by internationally acclaimed painter Xenia Hausner, the costumes are by fashion shooting star Arthur Arbesser. The opulent features are inspired by Belle Époque and Art Nouveau.
You have hardly ever seen a more magnificent, tasteful, more opulent "Rosenkavalier". (Süddeutsche Zeitung)
