REPORTS
I Capuleti e I Montecchi, Bayerische Staatsoper, München 16. May 2012
By Herbert 

I liked tonight's show even more than the first one last Saturday, because the audience was more spontaneous and enthusiastic. There were not so many "posh" people who just wanted to be seen, but real opera enthusiasts or "afficionados".

Anna's voice and her choreography especially in the second scene of the first act were adorable. This scene completely belonged to her, and the love duet with her Romeo / Vesselina Kasarova was one of the highlights of the opera. Although she had just a few days for rehearsals, Anna plays and sings this role as if there had been several weeks of rehearsing. She's a phenomenon!

Today there were six microphones at the stage edge, so there might be a radio recording coming up!

At the stage door Anna appeared in a summer dress (although it was quite fresh tonight), and she spent a lot of time for autographs and photos, until Erwin Schrott came in. Anna then said: "Oh, I have to go" - and they went to a taxi waiting outside.

Everybody who can watch the live stream next Saturday on should not miss it at all!!

REPORTS
I Capuleti e I Montecchi, Bayerische Staatsoper, München 12. May 2012
By Herbert 

The first of five performances of "I Capuleti e i Montecchi" at the Bayerische Staatsoper in Munich was a triumph for the two protagonists Anna Netrebko and Vesselina Kasarova. But the male singers - Dimitri Pittas (Tebaldo), Ante Jerkunica (Capellio), Paul Gay (Lorenzo) - and the musical director Yves Abel as well as the chorus deserved a lot of applause, too.

Anna, in a short white opulent dress (created by French fashion designer Christian Lacroix) and with long dark hair, looked and played like the 15-year-old girl she had to embody. Director Vincent Boussard asked a lot of her. For example she had to sing while she was balancing on a wash basin (the only weird idea in this production), but she mastered everything! Her voice was fabulous, and I always wonder how she can switch to sing a whole opera after the concert in Baden-Baden and the two Russian recitals in Paris and Vienna. Anyway, "yes, she can"!

A funny scene at curtain calls: When Anna left the stage, she didn't walk, but ballet danced like in "Swan Lake".
