| Aldeburgh Box Office, 152 High Street, Aldeburgh IP15 5AQ, United Kingdom Tuesday 18-Jun-13 The Borough Punchdrunk Theatre Company and its artistic director Felix Barrett are pioneers in a highly individual form of theatre, focusing as much on audience members and the surroundings as the performers and the narrative. Lines between spaces, performer and spectator blur to create an unforgettable experience. This version sets the story somewhere between George Crabbe’s poem The Borough and Britten’s masterpiece, Peter Grimes. It will take audience members on individual theatrical journeys around Grimes’ town, following in his footsteps and hearing Britten’s score. Open air: Outdoors | ||

And Colin Matthews’ arrangements of music by Berg and Debussy Guest Artistic Associate Colin Matthews crafts an ingenious programme that mines the riches of the last hundred years of chamber music repertoire, tracing an elegant arch from the turbulent opening years of the twentieth century to the present day and back again. Framed by tiny masterpieces for a solo instrument, this is a rich tapestry, weaving into its fabric the distilled fervour of Berg and Webern, Knussen and Woolrich’s lyricism, and Stravinsky’s brittle, brilliant pastiches. Matthews’ own music and his arrangements of others takes its place here, as does Britten – some of his earliest chamber music to his last instrumental work. Nods also to Aldeburgh Artistic directors of the past and music from a composer who was a regular visitor and significant presence – Hans Werner Henze. A seamless sequence that seems to shape a new composition from many pre-constructed fragments – the familiar, the re-imagined and the unusual sharing an intimate space without ever jarring or jostling for attention – this is a modernist montage that startles, reveals and illuminates. | ||

| La Monnaie | De Munt: Grand Hall, Brussels, Muntplein-Place de la Monnaie, 1000 Brussels, Belgium Tuesday 18-Jun-13 07:00pm The fatal temptation to seek the truth in love: men and women scorch their hearts and wings in trying to unlock the secret of emotions. How quickly perversity and cruelty oust desire and tenderness. Here Mozart enters into a dialogue with Marivaux and Sade. As in his previous operas, he succeeds in producing an incredible tension, a breathtakingly beautiful structuring of the text (his third collaboration with Da Ponte) and the music. Director Michael Haneke, one of the most incisive and insightful film-makers of our time, presents us with his vision of a work that is as spell-binding, serious, complex and at times light as it is formidably modern, where the experience of infidelity transforms the four characters by laying bare their frailty. For the Austrian director, this is his first time at La Monnaie, while Ludovic Morlot conducts his second opera of the season.Image credit: © Flore-Aël Surun / Tendance Floue Thomas Rösner, Conductor Michael Haneke, Director Christoph Kanter, Set Designer Anett Fritsch, Soprano: Fiordiligi Andreas Wolf, Baritone: Guglielmo Juan Francisco Gatell, Tenor: Ferrando Kerstin Avemo, Soprano: Despina William Shimell, Baritone: Don Alfonso Orchestre Symphonique et Choeurs de la Monnaie | ||

Snape Maltings Concert Hall Christian Zacharias Aldeburgh Festival |
|
 | ||
| Snape Maltings Concert Hall, Snape IP17 1SP, United Kingdom Tuesday 18-Jun-13 07:00pm Christian Zacharias Intuitive, imaginative and free-thinking, Christian Zacharias is the most versatile of musicians. But it is perhaps in this repertoire where he is most at home, bringing a refined poetic instinct, poise and perceptive insights to the great riches of the classical and romantic piano repertoire. In his intriguingly constructed programme, all roads seem to lead to Schubert. Light and carefree though their titles are, Schubert’s poetic miniatures carry a profound depth
of feeling that goes far beyond mere improvisatory caprice. He prefaces them with the glittering clarity of Scarlatti, Brahms’ restless turbulence and the
foreboding and fantasy of Mozart and Haydn. | ||

| Sadler's Wells: Peacock Theatre, London, Portugal Street, Holborn, London WC2 2HT, United Kingdom Tuesday 18-Jun-13 07:30pm ZooNation Dance Company — Some Like It Hip Hop ZooNation’s Some Like It Hip Hop has been a runaway success since it hit the Peacock Theatre in 2011, wowing audiences and prompting widespread critical praise with five-star reviews and standing ovations. After a second successful run and celebrating the company’s tenth anniversary at Sadler’s Wells last year, Some Like It Hip Hop returns to the Peacock Theatre to kick-start the summer. Fast becoming a modern classic, Some Like It Hip Hop unites truly sensational dancing and a typically clever and engrossing storyline with infectious “wit, heart and magnificent energy” (The Independent). With a nod to Billy Wilder’s Some Like It Hot and Shakespeare’s Twelfth Night, it tells a comical tale of love, mistaken identity, cross-dressing and revolution, all played out in ZooNation’s trademark style of hip hop, comedy and physical theatre. Directed by Sadler’s Wells Associate Artist Kate Prince, Some Like It Hip Hop also features a ground-shaking original soundtrack, live singing and some of the UK’s top hip hop dance talent. | ||

English National Opera Edward Gardner, Conductor Deborah Warner, Director Tom Pye, Set Designer Kim Brandstrup, Choreography John Graham-Hall, Tenor: Gustav von Aschenbach Andrew Shore, Baritone: Voice of Dionysius Tim Mead, Countertenor: Voice of Apollo |
 | ||
| The London Coliseum, St. Martin's Lane, London WC2N 4ES, United Kingdom Tuesday 18-Jun-13 07:30pm Two unspoken themes run throughout Britten’s much-admired opera: the impossible passion that a troubled writer forms for a fellow hotel guest, and the cholera epidemic which the authorities are all too keen to hush up. In Death in Venice, Britten revisits the subject of corruption of youth and innocence that so fascinated him and delivers a haunting theatrical experience of consummate power.
Deborah Warner’s production of Britten’s final opera celebrates the composer’s centenary year and reaffirms ENO’s position as the world’s leading producer of his operas. This production reunites award-winning director Warner with ENO Music Director Edward Gardner, who returns to Britten following ENO’s productions of Billy Budd (2012) and Peter Grimes (2009), for which his conducting was described as ‘deeply musical’ (Financial Times).
Tickets £16 - £99.Edward Gardner, Conductor Deborah Warner, Director Tom Pye, Set Designer Kim Brandstrup, Choreography John Graham-Hall, Tenor: Gustav von Aschenbach Andrew Shore, Baritone: Voice of Dionysius Tim Mead, Countertenor: Voice of Apollo | ||

|
 | ||
| New Garden: Palm Hall, Potsdam, Am neuen Garten, 14467 Potsdam, Germany Tuesday 18-Jun-13 08:00pm Meeting in Leipzig In 1843 Hans Christian Andersen wrote in a letter to a German friend: "My friend the composer Gade went to Leipzig and composes with Mendelssohn who loves him dearly." As for many Scandinavian composers, Leipzig became a starting point for the Dane from where he began a successful career. The young talent from the North inspired Mendelssohn and his concert audience so Gade was hired for the newly founded academy of music and Mendelssohn also made him 2nd conductor at the prestigious Gewandhaus. Yet in 1847 Gade had to attend the funeral of his friend and patron. The Stockholm-based DAHLKVIST QUARTET contrasts Mendelssohn’s quartet in F minor with a late piece by Gade adds the latest piece by the Swedish composer Andrea Tarrodi, which is inspired by Swedish and Hungarian folk music, as an exciting contemporary counterpoint.

Orford Church The Church Parables: Curlew River - I Aldeburgh Festival |
|
 | ||
| Orford Church, Orford IP12 2LU, United Kingdom Tuesday 18-Jun-13 08:00pm The Church Parables: Curlew River - I Initially inspired by Britten’s encounter with Noh theatre while on tour in Japan in 1955, Curlew River tells the haunting story of a mother's search for her lost son. Britten transforms the Noh play Sumidagawa into an English medieval mystery play, capturing remarkable similarities between the two distant cultures. The setting is shifted to medieval East Anglia – a feat easily achieved in Orford’s magnificent twelfth-century Church of St Bartholomew. The acclaimed company Mahogany Opera takes Britten’s assimilation of East and West, referencing both Noh tradition and medieval western iconography. Premiered in Orford at the 1964 Aldeburgh Festival, Curlew River is both heart-rending and remarkably evocative of Britten’s Suffolk: in the words of composer Robin Holloway, the spare setting “suffices to render river, marsh and circling birds with startling vividness”. Tickets are limited to two per booker | ||

Over the last years, former resident choreographer David Dawson has worked freelance with a number of top European companies. After timelapse and day4 Dawson will be back in Amsterdam with a new choreography set to new music.

Muziekgebouw aan ’t IJ: Main Hall, Amsterdam Troparion and Suster Bertken Holland Festival |
|

| Muziekgebouw aan ’t IJ: Main Hall, Amsterdam, Piet Heinkade 1, Amsterdam 1019 BR, Netherlands Tuesday 18-Jun-13 08:30pm Troparion and Suster Bertken The Dutch composer Rob Zuidam has always had an eye for headstrong women. In his first collaboration with festival director Pierre Audi he puts two of them on stage. Suster Bertken tells about the fascinating life of the medieval ascetic Berta Jacobs, who bricked herself in at the Buur Church in Utrecht, in order to devote her life to God. This work from 2010 will be staged for the first time, in combination with the brand new Troparion, which Zuidam wrote for alto Helena Rasker, the young violinist Liza Ferschtman and a small instrumental ensemble. The piece is about a woman who sheds her tears on a dead branch, hoping God will breathe new life into it. According to Zuidam the work is about ‘hope and melancholy and the inability to bridge the gap between past and future.’Tickets €29 - 24, students/CJO €17.50 all categories. Running time 2 hours 5 minutes, with one internal. In medieval Dutch and ancient Greek with Dutch surtitles.Image credit: Ada Nieuwendijk | ||

Now, for the first time, they are visiting the Holland Festival with a new piece Dança morta (Dead dance). Beltrão grew up with street-dance and later studied contemporary dance and philosophy. His radical choreographies are rooted in the explosive physicality of hip hop. In his work, Beltrão brilliantly abstracts everyday reality using a very contemporary language of dance. The prominent dance magazine Ballettanz voted Beltrão ‘rising star choreographer of the year’.Running time 1 hour 30 minutes, no interval. Tickets €27.50 - 22.50, students/CJP €17.50 all categories.Image credit: Ada Nieuwendijk | ||

| Aldeburgh Box Office, 152 High Street, Aldeburgh IP15 5AQ, United Kingdom Wednesday 19-Jun-13 The Borough Punchdrunk Theatre Company and its artistic director Felix Barrett are pioneers in a highly individual form of theatre, focusing as much on audience members and the surroundings as the performers and the narrative. Lines between spaces, performer and spectator blur to create an unforgettable experience. This version sets the story somewhere between George Crabbe’s poem The Borough and Britten’s masterpiece, Peter Grimes. It will take audience members on individual theatrical journeys around Grimes’ town, following in his footsteps and hearing Britten’s score. Open air: Outdoors | ||
