3 pieces since 2015 — in 3 roles, at 2 companies, most often at Berlin Komische Oper.
Coming from placid, luxurious Geneva, where I am currently living, Berlin felt even more jarring than usual.
As is happening increasingly in opera productions today (e.g., the Rosenkavalier in Stuttgart), the action of Moses und Aron at the Komische Oper begins some minutes before the music does.
The Berlin Komische Oper was the scene of one of my greatest opera experiences five years ago, so I particularly looked forward to a return to this theater.
