Glyndebourne 2022 Reviews
Fri 14 Oct, 2022
Each summer, we make our way down to Lewes, Sussex where we are a Resident Orchestra at Glyndebourne Opera Festival. Here we collate some of the reviews from 2022.
The Marriage of Figaro
The LPO…opened with a light and ebullient sound, at once conveying the opera’s witty humour
The Arts Desk
The set-up needs voluptuous performances and it gets plenty here…the LPO produce detailed, languid phrasing
The Times
The Wreckers
The immaculate London Philharmonic
The Times
The London Philharmonic deliver the score with such blazing eloquence and conviction
The Telegraph
Glyndebourne have really done it [the opera] proud
The Guardian
The playing of the London Philharmonic is as good as it gets
The Stage
This was a gripping performance, brilliantly played by the LPO
Planet Hugill
Robin Ticciati conducting the London Philharmonic Orchestra makes sense of the maze of themes
Culture Whisper
The London Philharmonic Orchestra under Robin Ticciati never flagging through three acts of pounding energy and volume
Financial Times
This is all presented with enormous panache and commitment by...the London Philharmonic Orchestra...Ticciati and his musicians give a full-blooded account of the score that certainly kept the drama moving along
Opera Wire
The LPO and Glyndebourne Chorus are on top form
Evening Standard
La bohème
Much fine playing comes from the London Philharmonic Orchestra
The Times
Jordan de Souza conducts the London Philharmonic, and it is as if all the colour that has been leached from the stage is brimming over the edge of the pit
The Guardian
Visser [the director] knows and exploits the power of a visual image to underscore the emotional effect of text and music
Evening Standard
The London Philharmonic Orchestra lent an incredible level of detail to Puccini's score, with vivid swathes of orchestral colour rising from the pit
The Arts Desk
Best of all, Jordan de Souza conducts an all-encompassing boheme with the London Philharmonic Orchestra, fleet and sparkling, and with the lyrical music shaped as freshly as if it was composed yesterday
Financial Times
Poulenc Double Bill
