From the website of BSO:
THE 2023-24 SEASON
Excerpt from Serge Dorny's season essay from the annual preview:
Today's world faces massive geopolitical challenges and crises. Again and again, our civilization walks on the edge of an abyss, on the edge of a volcano. A condition that makes us realize how fragile our humanity and our environment is. Perhaps our planet will be saved: It has existed for five billion years and may have as many years ahead of it before the sun goes down. But we, the people, our civilizations, our cultures - what happens to us?
"But where there is danger, the saving also grows" (Friedrich Hölderlin). Guided by these thoughts, worries, perhaps even fears, but also hopes, we have worked out the 2023-24 season, which can be preceded by a sentence from Fernando Pessoa's Book of Unrest:
"WE ARE A CHASM - A WELL THAT STARES INTO THE SKY."
The season turns to these two poles, between which life oscillates - heaven and hell. Opera, too - it's inspiring and, at the same time, comforting power - constantly fluctuates between them.
What are your opinions about the new season?
All the best,
Alexander J. Leventov

It is nearly impossible to understand that it is possible to make a program like this

[@MucMS01]

Massive state financial aids

[@melaniamonicacraciun9900]

Very good tips for the weekend, everybody is invited to enjoy Opera shows, visit Munchen for the occasion

[@grahamdouglas6752]

What a stupendous season's offering. How wonderful it must be to live in Munich and have this available to see. I wouldn't miss one of them!

[@peterdevita6308]

Well it's nigh impossible to see every opera Munich is presenting,. How is that even possible?

[@dckrn]

Totally agere, fabulous program ..I’m trying to figure out if I could arrange my life in USA to work from home staying in Munich for the season.

[@gnirolnamlerf593]

Except, as the big headline at the end says, it's not in Munich, or München, it's in Muich. How can an opera company present all this and then misspell the name of the city in which the performances are going to take place in a headline? It's one thing for a commenter whose comment will be forgotten in about 15 seconds to make a typing mistake, quite another for an organization attempting to reach tens of thousands or more to not proofread before posting or not care enough to correct it. Disappointing. No that doesn't affect the quality of the music presented during the year, but they don't need a KZbin post to give their performances. How do I know? Because the Bayerische Staatsoper gave performances before there was an internet, TV, radio or mass media of any sort starting in 1653.

[@gnirolnamlerf593]

@@peterdevita6308 Why would it be difficult? Just spend 5,000 Euros for tickets and rent an apartment in Munich for nine months. Voila! You can go to 25 or 30 operas. If that's your passion in life and you had the money, you could do it, just like people go to see 41 NBA games or 81 baseball games of their favorite team in North America.

[@MucMS01]

@@gnirolnamlerf593 It is NOT the opera company (Bayerische Staatsoper) which is presenting this video on KZbin but a private person.

[@rosy3385]

Il y a, dans ce programme, du très beau et du très laid ! Je ne parle pas des voix bien entendu !!!

[@samueljaramillo4221]

Some very nice productions, others very ugly modern updates.

[@georgesclermont1911]

Wonderful offering. Some may not be to everybody's taste but at least it's trying something new. And no three hundred pounders it the casts.

[@laprimmadonna2341]

Me emociona Saioa como Lady Macbeth, tengo la esperanza que resucite este personaje y la vuelva a poner en su lugar, como ya hizo con Abigail de Nabucco. Maravillosos los títulos, con muchos cantantes desconocidos para mi. No sé si ya ha empezado un cambio generacional, a ver si tenemos la fortuna de una generación que vuelva a la ópera, a la lírica, al compositor…ojalá. Muchas gracias ❤❤❤❤❤

[@Ulysses88047]

Tolles Programm, fantastische Stimmen : Yonceva, Harteros, Pretty Yende, Marlis Petersen, Damrau, Asmik Grigorian, Rachvelischvili, Caleja, Lawrence Bronwlee, Kaufmann, Erwin Schrot, Tezier, etc... Ich würde gerne Tosca und Norma sehen.....

[@nightowl6260]

Thanks for this!!!

[@brynjarhoff-lr6hw]

Man bør reise til Munich for å høre de beste? Ja det ser jo sånn ut efter å ha sett denne sesongplanen

[@dieterflorian865]

Xavier Anduaga war vor einigen Jahren Schüler beim Star-Tenor Juan Diego Florez, durch ihn kam Anduaga wahrscheinlich zum Rossini Festival nach Pesaro. Er gab ihm wertvolle Tipps zur Stimmbildung🎶😍🎶.

[@robert111k]

No. He simply attended a Flórez masterclasss. Btw, Anduaga's voice is far better than Flórez's but regarding mastering their instruments Flórez is head and shoulders above.

[@lucabaldo8195]

Scene e costumi sono una componente fondamentale quanto il canto. Lasciate ogni opera ambientata correttamente. Se no la gente a teatro non ci viene più 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@alejandrosotomartin9720]

There is any opera that they don´t stage ?

[@melaniamonicacraciun9900]

Fans are invited to visit Munchen for the occasion, make it an Opera happening unforgettable fans

[@mturkic]

Can you PLEASE stop using WHITE singers COLOURED UP!!! TRY HARDER!!!

[@danielintheantipodes6741]

I have not heard of Weinberg but I liked the sound of the clip that you included. Thank you for the video!

[@ritawing1064]

Yes, me too, must look him up

[@akechijubeimitsuhide]

I wonder if Jonas will ever sing Hermann, I think the character would be a good fit for him. He's great with troubled tragic figures.

[@JWP452]

Although it's The Bayerische Staatsoper, I still hope they get some of these right.

[@aliciasarramida]

thank you for sharing ♥

[@Solomija-r3h]

Super😞

[@nicolecourtois8394]

Il y a le choix 😊

[@ivanscotton6163]

Mais um teatro que esqueceu o Sesquicentenario da estreia do Salvador Rosa no Teatro Carlos Fenice de Genova. Foi maior sucesso que o Guarani.

[@dieterflorian865]

S. Yoncheva als Butterfly ist natürlich erste Sahne 🎶😍🎶

[@Olgaalwina]

Da denke ich wohl eher an Ermonela Jaho oder A. Voulgadario

[@dieterflorian865]

@@Olgaalwina Tut mir leid, die kenne ich gar nicht🥹

[@Luitpoldiana]

Es bezieht sich nicht auf die Bayerische Staatsoper, sonder auf das Royal Opera House!

[@zoltanrusko4205]

Wowww

[@auntiezy4008]

Very good

[@resborzage]

Merde, and hilariously, almost cookie-cutter identical to all the other Euro Trash seasons everywhere else.

[@jordipanadesribera6890]

Vielen Dank.

[@peterdevita6308]

Impressive but what operas are in what subscriptions?

[@emanuelcarallen]

❤

[@09lohengrin]

Wrong informations: Kaufmann is one of 2 Radames (followed by Jade) and Castronuovo is 1 of 2 Cavaradossi (besides Kaufmann) !!!

[@AlexanderJuliusLeventov]

No, the information is correct. Jonas Kaufmann is the only Radames in the 23/24 season. And Castronuovo is the Cavaradossi in 23/24 Tosca. During the Münchener Festspiele 2024, Jonas Kaufmann is the Cavaradossi (mentioned in this video at the end, but not detailed)

[@minodoraroman8864]

Mama mia, che Otello!

[@baileyreidrickman]

After seeing Marlis Petersen in Lulu many times, I’m glad she’s making her Marie debut at last ❤️❤️❤️

[@wishingonthemoon1]

“Muich” opera festival, huh? 😉 Looks like an awesome season!

[@munichpeter]

"Munich" opera festival

[@jeanlucdecrescenzo5786]

Fa sognare !!!!

Don't to forget to bring your blindfold to most of these productions!

Oh, oh, wo denn?🙈

[@HortiAnnalenae]

If this is the best you can do - vocally and otherwise - you won't be seeing me in your theatre this season!

[@renatebube1234]

Boring. The same 10 operas whereever you go.

[@Roheryn100]

Dido and Aeneas ? Idomeneo ? I don’t think so.

[@munichpeter]

Haha, look to the Met, or La Scala
