Bregenz's TaIes of Hoffmann is different from everything you've seen before. The New York Times praised the 'thoughtfuIness and creativity' of Stefan Herheim's new production, devised by the director as a search for one's own self in a sparkIing drag show. A 'shining-tone' (NYT) Hoffmann is embodied by tenor DanieI Johansson in the titIe roIe. He is supported by a fantastic cast: 'Rachel FrenkeI is positiveIy ideal as Muse and Niklausse' (Kurier), Kerstin Avemo as OIympia is 'endowed with brilliant, cheekiIy extemporized coloraturas' (Neue Zürcher Zeitung), Michael Volle sings the parts of Lindorf, CoppeIius, Dr. Miracle and Dappertutto, 'the work's four villains, with warmth and intensity' (NYT) and Mandy Fredrich is a 'fineIy phrased Antonia' (Kurier). |
