The Theater an der Wien in Vienna debuted a new production of Handel's Giulio Cesare in December last year. Directed by Keith Warner, it featured a terrific cast including Louise Alder as Cleopatra, Bejun Mehta as Giulio Cesare, Patricia Bardon as Cornelia, Jake Arditti as Sesto, and Christophe Dumaux is Tolomeo, with Ivor Bolton conducting Concentus Musicus Wien. Definitely one to travel for, if only travel were more possible!

As it is, for those of us missing such large scale productions, there is a chance to catch the opera online as Cue TV will be streaming it on 27 January at 8pm CET (9pm UK time) and it will be available to watch at any time. Further information from Cue TV, production and performance information on Operabase.
