2012 Season
Read the reviews...
"In its 16 years to date Opera Holland Park has rarely stood
still. One of this year's initiatives involves a performance in
which the cast of Puccini's Gianni Schicchi will be replaced by
young singers, fully rehearsed but performing at reduced prices - a
novelty that it would be good to see catch on elsewhere."
Financial Times
"Falstaff is one of a handful of operas one wishes were
longer than their allotted span. The same goes for OHP’s summer
season."
The Stage
"When Opera Holland Park decides to stage a 'forgotten
masterpiece' - a term that is so often used euphemistically - you
can be sure it has actually unearthed a real gem."
Metro
"This Lucia makes a fine season opener"
Bachtrack
"The result is a highly stirring meditation on the themes of
love and mortality, where for an all too brief fifty minutes we are
whisked away to a world of heightened emotions, and left wondering
why Zanetto should ever have been off the British menu for
quite so long."
Music OMH
"Stunning...Savagely funny."
The Guardian
"This fine orchestra is the ace up Holland Park’s sleeve,
rock-solid and marinated in Italianate warmth after so many seasons
at this address."
