Hosted by Opera Enthusiast: In October 2014, chinese TV broadcast "Salome" from Hongkong to mark the 150th anniversary of Richard Strauss' birth. It is the recording of a co-production of Slovenian National Theatre Opera and Ballet Ljubljana and the Leisure and Cultural Services Department and Opera Hong Kong (OHK), with first class international stars in the lead roles and very good asian singers in the smaller parts - all of them to be praised for doing a heroic job with the german text!

Hosted by Stig Fogh Andersen: Richard Wagner, Götterdämmerung, "Helle Wehr" - a little snapshot from München 2003, conducted by Zubin Mehta and directed by David Alden. There were some quite sarcastic reviews of this modern production, but the cast was excellent and we made fantastic music.

Hosted by Opera Enthusiast: The Minnesingers' contest from Wagner's Tannhäuser in a live recording from Copenhagen 2009, plus cast in the credits during the curtain calls at the end. This production by danish enfant terrible Kasper Holten, best known for his "Copenhagen Ring", is turning the Tannhäuser story upside down and inside out, … (read more on Youtube)

Hosted by Stig Fogh Andersen: The Colón Ring, Buenos Aires 2012 - two "Walküre" clips from DW's documentary. The Colón Ring was based on the very controversial idea to play Wagner's "Ring" tetralogy all in one day, shortened to 7 hours. DW ("Deutsche Welle") made a delightful documentary about this production, with rehearsal videos, interviews and scenes from the performance, which is available online here in two parts:

Hosted by Stig Fogh Andersen: A little taste of the totally endearing, hardly known short opera "The Nightingale" by Igor Strawinsky (after the Danish author Hans Christian Andersen), produced in 1990 by Danish Radio in a setting that looks like a fairy tale :-) With Djina Maj-Maj, soprano, and Stig Fogh Andersen, tenor.
