Search ArticlesDie Entführung aus dem Serail, by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
Don’t look back! Like Orpheus, finicky opera fans with cherished memories have a hard time heeding that advice. In 2015, Glyndebourne premiered Mozart’s Oriental fantasy Die Entführung aus dem Serail in a David McVicar production that looked glacially formal yet blazed with banked fires.
Tosca at Wolf Trap
Unless you’re family, you’ll never have heard of the principals in this summertime Tosca, and that is precisely the point. Wolf Trap Opera is a springboard for stars of tomorrow. Take Ryan McKinny, heard at the Filene Center years ago as the Tutor in Rossini’s singing-nunsense Le Comte Ory and the eponymous bridegroom of Mozart’s Le Nozze di Figaro.
The Garma Festival is Australia's Biggest Gathering for Indigenous Culture
You can’t just show up for Garma. The fact that Australia’s most consequential festival for Indigenous arts and culture takes place at the northernmost tip of the Northern Territory, a seven-hour flight from the nearest big city, and sells out six months in advance, are a couple of reasons. But the big reason is that, while you may elect to sleep in a tent in the bush for four days, it’s the organizers who ultimately decide whether to let you—all 2000 of you, Indigenous and not, young and old.
Afternoons in the Garden with William Christie and Les Arts Florissants
In 1985, William Christie—harpsichordist, conductor, and founder of the renowned Baroque period ensemble Les Arts Florissants—put down stakes in Thiré, acquiring a plot of unimproved former farmland as the blank page on which to create the garden of his dreams. Four decades on, the property unfolds before a visitor’s eyes like Jean Cocteau’s fantasies for La Belle et la Bête. Though a creation of our time, the spread is listed on the French Inventory of Historic Monuments.
Artists at the Center: Paris Opera Ballet Étoile Hugo Marchand
Mixed repertory programs organized by the dancer who stars in them don’t tend to turn out well, but this endeavor by the Paris Opera Ballet étoile Hugo Marchand could be the exception. There is a preponderance of pas de deux, but they run the gamut from neoclassical Balanchine to appealingly primitivist Angelin Preljocaj to the influential Franco-American Carolyn Carson, whose imagistic work rarely travels to the States.

The Handmade Shoes Worth Flying to Athens For
strut Lemisios It wasn’t until the fifth time I walked down Likavittou Street, in Athens’s Kolonaki neighborhood, that I noticed the little shop on the corner: Lemisios. Polka-dot, calf-hair ballet flats beckoned me to enter—a blessing and a curse. Family-owned and open since 1912, Lemisios has manufactured handmade women’s leather footwear for five generations. With limited stock available in-store—meaning most pairs are made-to-order—customers are encouraged to create their dream shoe.
The Duke of Hazard
Prince Harry was half an hour early. As a discussion about his Invictus Games tournament at Chatham House in London got under way, the Duke of Sussex was distracted, glancing down at his lap to check a phone or tablet of some sort. It was hard to discern what exactly, because the press, who had been invited to report on Harry’s One Year to Go event for the tournament, had been relegated to seats at the back of the room.
The Seductive World of "Bonjour Tristesse"
watch Bonjour Tristesse Bonjour Tristesse needs no introduction. But humor me, if you will. Adapted by Otto Preminger in 1958 from Françoise Sagan’s acclaimed 1954 French novella of the same name, the film is a languid romantic drama set on the French Riviera and a summer must-watch. Sagan wrote the book when she was only 18, and the slow-burn story was an instant success.
How to Elevate At-Home Salads, According to Borgo New York Chef Jordan Frosolone
If you ever go to Borgo on East 27th Street in New York City, get the salad. I can’t say for sure what will be in it (you know, seasonality and all that), but I do know it will make you stop mid-bite and think to yourself, How come I don’t make salads like this? I’m not saying you don’t make a nice salad. Maybe even a tasty one—but not like this.
