Opera. Russia 2017, 147 min. Music by Giacomo Puccini. Musical Director and Conductor Teodor Currentzis. Libretto by Giuseppe Giacosa and Luigi Illica, based on "Scenes de la Vie de Boheme" by Henri Murger. A co-production by Festspielhaus Baden-Baden and Perm Opera. Stage Director: Philipp Himmelmann; Set Designer: Raimund Bauer; Costume Designer: Kathi Maurer. Starring: Davie Giusti, Lonstantin Suchkov, Edwin Crossley-Mercer, Deyan Vatchkov, Garry Agadzhanyan, Zarina Abaeva, Nadezhda Pavlova, Artists of MusicAeterna chorus, children’s theatre studio, opera chorus and extras MusicAeterna Orchestra. La Bohème is a gem of late 19th century lyrical psychological opera. It follows the traditions of Verdi's La Traviata and is dedicated, according to music historian Mikhail Muginstein, to the "sad mystery of life investigated from the perspective of time’s irreversibility." Philipp Himmelmann, a stage director from Germany, is known to Russian audiences as the director of Mozart's Le nozze di Figaro staged in Perm in 2012. His interpretation of the opera by Puccini is set in Paris in the 1960s. It was a legendary time that gave birth to the new cinematography, fashion and understanding of the role of personality in history. Teodor Currentzis: "La Bohème is a story about fragile people creating fragile beauty. This is a story about angels trying to create their own life on earth".

Opera. USA 2017, 252 min. Music by Richard Strauss. New production by Robert Carsen. Conductor - Sebastian Weigle. Starring: Renée Fleming, Elīna Garanča, Erin Morley, Matthew Polenzani, Marcus Brück, Günther Groissböck. Set Designer - Paul Steinberg. Costume Designer - Brigitte Reiffenstuel. Lighting Designer - Peter Van Praet, Robert Carsen. Choreographer - Philippe Giraudeau. In German with Russian subtitles. The dream cast of Renée Fleming as the Marschallin and Elīna Garanča as Octavian star in Strauss’s grandest opera. In his new production, Robert Carsen, the director behind the Met’s recent Falstaff, places the action at the end of the Habsburg Empire, underscoring the opera’s subtext of class and conflict against a rich backdrop of gilt and red damask, in a staging that also stars Günther Groissböck as Baron Ochs. Sebastian Weigle conducts the sparklingly perfect score. Co-production of the Metropolitan Opera; Royal Opera House, Covent Garden, London; and Teatro Regio di Torino.
