Allan Clayton stunning as Peter Grimes in Frankfurt. I’d forgotten how good Keith Warner’s staging is. Great ensemble as always and Guggeis very convincing in the pit.

Surprisingly, Pénélope wasn‘t staged by any French house during the centenary of Fauré’s death last year. Thankfully, Munich is staging it this year to mark the 150th anniversary of the Opernfestspiele

You‘d think a house as prestigious as #OpéradeParis would’ve had back-up should a cast member fall ill. Instead, Wotan did a Sprechgesang version of Rheingold until Alberich took pity + stood in from sidelines instead. Bieito’s staging didn’t make any more sense on 2nd viewing, either. 😱
