Don’t know where Norman got his news from
Is this the genius responsible for staging Il Trovatore 50 years into the future with all of the dramatis personae in one room and the corpse of Ferrando left on the floor for half of the opera?
yep and responsible for much more shit on stage….again Norman’s source ‘bruzz’ is a pr stunt probably issued by the director to ‘force’ his appointment by the federal government.
Pathetic gesture and unnecessary. While ‘the board’ has supported him there is no official appointment as yet. So there may be some hope left for another nitwit to do even worse:)
I had to suffer almost three decades of Audi madness. He’s now in aix, how on earth do these people always finds jobs, the subsidized cultural world is SICK, that’s why it’s losing its public so drastically.
Lulu’s staging featuring Barbara Hannigan was quite worth to see, I enjoyed it a lot and would like to say that this director is not only bad. Isn’t the worst thing about Brussel’s Opera House its musical direction?
