Royal Opera House: Andrea Chénier | Ratings & Reviews

"Kaufmann is a tenor who encompasses Italian and Wagnerian repertoire commends him as the right man for the job."

The New York Times

The New York Times

"Kaufmann is but one dazzling reason to revive the rarely performed Andrea Chénier. And James MacMillan packs a punch with Inés de Castro."

"By all means go to hear the thrilling Jonas Kaufmann but don’t expect a night of theatrical profundity."

"An exquisitely realised production."

"Jonas Kaufmann’s dark tenor smoulders in this opulent, unashamedly old-fashioned production."
