The Newcastle University research output collection, currently available on ePrints, will shortly be moving to a new open repository platform, Figshare. To prepare for the data migration we have paused adding new content to ePrints, and will resume once the new repository is launched. During this time you will continue to have access to ePrints (but no new content will appear). We will share updates here when available.

Abstract

Lawrence Zazzo stars as Oberon, King of the Fairies, in this defining countertenor opera role in Benjamin Britten's A Midsummer Night's Dream. In a new production by Anglo-French director Irina Brook, this is Dr. Zazzo's debut at the Vienna Staatsoper and the first production of this opera for the Vienna State Opera since 1962, and the first to actually feature a countertenor as Oberon as Britten originally intended.
