Spectacular Don Giovanni by @kasperholten at ROH. Best I've seen ever. Hartmut Haenchen conducting with lots of energy in the pit. Schrott it's marvellous. #ROHdongiovanni at cinemas in Norway

Best quote of the Berlin audience at #ROHdongiovanni so far: "I didn't know Mozart was that good!" #betterlatethannever

#ROHdongiovanni is probably one of the best operas I’ve seen all year. Oh my god. Absolutely incredible. All the voices are stunning, the acting is phenomenal, and the set is mind-blowing. Erwin Schrott is incredible like always. Thank you!
