Stuart Skelton sings ‘Grimes’ At The ENO This Month.
The English National Opera’s 2014 season of Britten’s opera Peter Grimes is in full swing with Sydney born tenor Stuart Skelton singing the role of Grimes, a role he had made his own. Sydney audiences may recall his compelling performance in the Opera Australia production of 2009.
Here is a list of links to reviews of the ENO production, directed by David Alden which opened in London on January 29th and which runs till February 27th.
Fiona Maddocks in The Guardian said: “Stuart Skelton, the Australian tenor, reprises the title role, though nothing about his forlorn, tousle-haired, lumbering interpretation is ever anything but fresh, visceral and masterly.”
