“Brett’s response is a kind of internalisation….flighty and pedalled yet with a floating quality that owes nothing to Impressionists and everything to Dean’s own Weltanschauung…
This was superb music brilliantly performed.”

Great article in The New York Times about Vlad Jurowski and the role of politics in art, including some nice words about the new BayerischeStaatsoper Die Passagierin: “the performance, the staging and the architecture of the piece itself was shattering and stark”.
