Our Take

Ethel Smyth's "Der Wald" is a wild and whimsical ride through the forest of operatic bliss. Natalya Romaniw's soprano vocals soar like a majestic eagle, leading the charge through this one-act wonderland. Claire Barnett-Jones adds a touch of mystery with her mezzo-soprano magic, while Robert Murray's tenor notes dance through the trees like playful sprites.

Andrew Shore's baritone brings a sense of gravitas to the proceedings, anchoring the ensemble with a steady hand. Morgan Pearse and Matthew Brook's dueling baritone voices create a dynamic tension that keeps the listener on the edge of their seat. And let's not forget the powerhouse performance of the BBC Singers and Symphony Orchestra, who breathe life into Smyth's lush score with precision and passion.

Conductor John Andrews guides this musical menagerie with a steady hand, allowing each voice and instrument to shine in its own unique way. From the haunting opening notes to the thunderous finale, "Der Wald" is a rollercoaster of emotion and excitement that will leave you begging for an encore.

So grab your opera glasses and prepare to be swept away by Ethel Smyth's enchanting masterpiece. "Der Wald" is a musical adventure not to be missed, a true testament to the power of voices raised in harmony. So go ahead, dive into the forest of sound and let yourself be captivated by the magic of this timeless opera. Ethel Smyth would be proud.
