Our Take

Britten's The Turn of the Screw is a haunting masterpiece that will send shivers down your spine faster than you can say "ghost story." LA MONNAIE CHAMBER ORCHESTRA, under the maestro-like guidance of BEN GLASSBERG, brings a chilling precision to every note, making you feel like you're actually trapped in Bly Manor with the restless spirits.

SALLY MATTHEWS is a vocal powerhouse as she takes on the role of the Governess, her voice weaving a compelling tale of terror and intrigue. JULIAN HUBBARD as Peter Quint exudes a sinister charisma that will make you question the motives of every dark figure you encounter.

CAROLE WILSON and GISELLE ALLEN's harmonies as Miss Jessel and Mrs. Grose send shivers down your spine, while ED LYON and HENRI DE BEAUFFORT's duet as the Ghosts adds a haunting layer of complexity to this already chilling tale.

KATHARINA BIERWEILER's direction brings a fresh perspective to this classic opera, highlighting the psychological depths of the characters and the eerie atmosphere of the setting. Overall, Britten's The Turn of the Screw performed by this talented ensemble is a musical experience that will leave you on the edge of your seat, eagerly awaiting the next spectral encounter.
