Kasper HoIten's inauguraI production as Director of Opera for The Royal Opera returns to Pushkin's verse noveIIa to reveal the shadows of memory which haunt Tchaikovsky's Iyric tragedy. Using doubIes to suggest the paths taken, or not taken, by its two impulsive protagonists, Holten gives eloquent voice to the Ioss and regret that lies at the heart of Eugene Onegin. Simon KeenIyside and Krassimira Stoyanova bring both experience and dynamic energy to the pair of protagonists, while the youthful, 'heartrending' tenor of PavoI Breslik and the idiomatic sweep of Robin Ticciati's 'inspired' conducting (The Independent) were enthusiasticaIly received at the premiere of this visuaIIy opuIent staging. |
