"This is opera at its grandest and best" The Wall Street Journal

David McVicar's spectacular 2004 production of Gounod's Faust, featuring a divine cast of opera's superstars: Roberto Alagna, Angela Gheorghiu, Bryn Terfel, Simon Keenlyside and Sophie Koch.

McVicar is one of the most innovative and in-demand directors, and his lush, haunting realised vision of Faust received glorious praise. The production revels in a gothic, seamy Second French Empire setting, with the Act V ballet "haunting the imagination long after" (The Independent).
