In its review in 2025 the Online Merker described the new staging of the historic production of La finta giardiniera in the unmistakable sets and costumes by the legendary stage designer Günther Schneider-Siemssen as “one of the greatest of all great moments”. The production was created over 50 years ago for the renowned Mozart Week festival. Anyone who has not yet seen this absolute jewel, should certainly not miss the chance in 2027!
