Bieito’s continued association with the company shows ENO’s commitment to highly theatrical and new interpretations of core repertoire. Following the success of his Carmen at ENO in 2012, described by The Guardian as ‘a cogent, gripping piece of work’, Bieito’s production of Fidelio comes to the London Coliseum after its 2010 premiere in Munich. Working with designer Rebecca Ringst, Bieito presents a vast Escher-like labyrinth set, symbolising the powerfully claustrophobic nature of the opera. Edward Gardner, ENO’s highly acclaimed Music Director, 2013 Olivier Award-nominee and recipient of an OBE for services to music, conducts an outstanding cast led by Stuart Skelton singing Florestan and Emma Bell as Leonore. Since his definitive performance of Peter Grimes at ENO, Skelton is now recognised as one of the finest heldentenors of his generation, appearing at the world’s major opera houses, including the Metropolitan Opera, New York, and Opéra National de Paris.

  • The Royal Opera
    THE ROYAL OPERA 4.48 PSYCHOSIS OPERA IN ONE ACT BASED ON THE PLAY BY SARAH KANE MUSIC PHILIP VENABLES CONDUCTOR RICHARD BAKER DIRECTOR TED HUFFMAN DESIGNER HANNAH CLARK LIGHTING DESIGNER D.M. WOOD VIDEO DESIGNER PIERRE MARTIN SOUND DESIGN SOUND INTERMEDIA MOVEMENT DIRECTOR SARAH FAHIE CHROMA LYRIC HAMMERSMITH 24 | 26 | 27 | 28 MAY 2016 A CO-COMMISSION WITH THE GUILDHALL SCHOOL OF MUSIC & DRAMA GENEROUS PHILANTHROPIC SUPPORT FROM THE RVW TRUST Welcome We’re delighted to be working together to mount this new opera. These performances of 4.48 Psychosis mark the culmination of a three- year residency for composer Philip Venables at the Royal Opera House and Guildhall School of Music & Drama. The residency is an attempt both to make the most of the extraordinary artists working at the Royal Opera House around the year and to pull on the structured and supportive learning and creative environment available at the GSMD, and is part of a wider set of training initiatives between the two organizations. It feels completely right for this piece to be presented at the Lyric Hammersmith, a theatre with a long history of staging musical work and also the work of Sarah Kane. Adaptation is often at the heart of opera-making. Throughout history, the opera canon has been made up of familiar stories re-told in new forms. Art has always been derived from other art. The addition of music to a text opens up a new psychological space; music expresses something that lies in the empty spaces between and within words. Philip explores the eternal question of whether music or text takes the lead, showing us that there are still new ways to enliven opera’s old forms and enabling us to hear Sarah Kane’s extraordinary text with fresh ears.

  • Discography Malcolm Walker
    Discography Malcolm Walker Tis discography was begun in 1984, following a commission from the Mackerras family to contribute to Nancy Phelan’s biography of the conductor, published in 1987. At the time, Sir Charles generously gave up a whole morning and went through his diaries to fill in a number of missing dates and facts, a gesture warmly appreciated by the compiler. In the intervening years the discography has been maintained and updated. Sir Charles’s recording career spanned 58 years and was extremely varied in scope. During that time he was never exclusive to a single company. His TFSWJDFTUP$[FDINVTJD FTQFDJBMMZ%WPǣÈL +BOÈƿFLBOE.BSUJOǰ DPOWFZFE his passion for a country that he first visited not long after the end of the 4FDPOE8PSME8BS)JTFOEFBWPVSTPOCFIBMGPG)BOEFM .P[BSU #FFUIPWFO and Brahms produced revelatory recordings – as did his devoted advocacy of Arthur Sullivan. Note by NS Te format of the entries is as follows: Date (year, month, day), venue, soloists, chorus, orchestra, label; title of work; catalogue number of CD, DVD or other format. In the interests of space and clarity, only CD catalogue numbers are given unless the recording in question has not been released on CD (for details of LP releases, readers are referred to Malcolm Walker’s earlier discography in Phelan 1987). It is a measure of the length of Mackerras’s recording career that his earliest record – of Pineapple Poll – was first issued on twelve 78 r.p.m. sides, and his latest were quickly made available as downloads as well as compact discs. Te present discography lists downloads in cases where no CD has been released, or where a commercially available download has superseded a previously issued CD.
