I adore Berlin. Thanks for posting it. I saw a great evening on Monteverdi conducted by Rene Jacobs at this opera house. Sublime.

It was the longest time I had spent in Berlin, and certainly there is enough to do there.
I’m quite envious that you heard Monteverdi there.LikeLike

It was this wacky and totally effective merging of the 1610 Vespers and Il Combattimento di Trancredi e Clorinda. It was unlike anything I’d seen, and I adored it. Did you see/hear anything amazing when you were there?

My favorite opera performance was Tannhäuser: http://operatattler.typepad.com/opera/2008/04/tannhuser-at-un.html
But the best performance was Quatuor Ebène at the Konzerthaus Berlin:
