The Cherry Orchard | 2026 Adelaide Festival
A modern re-working of Chekhov’s play of the same name, perhaps comparable to Bernstein’s re-working of Romeo and Juliet in West Side Story.
Perle Noire: Meditations for Joséphine | 2026 Adelaide Festival

There is no denying the dramatic force of these sonatas, and there is drama in spades in Mustonen’s renderings.
