In this first production of Benjamin Britten's opera at Glyndebourne, Sir Mark Elder conducts the Glyndebourne Chorus and the London Philharmonic. Performers include Jacques Imbrailo in the title role, John Mark Ainsley, Phillip Ens and Iain Paterson.

Stravinsky's masterwork, created for La Fenice in Venice in 1951, is based on a libretto by W. H. Auden and Chester Kallman, inspired by a series of 18th century prints by William Hogarth. This 2007 production from La Monnaie-De Munt 'jazzifies' the setting by replacing Hogarth's sin city, London, with 1950s Las Vegas, turning it into a glittering, cinematic gallery of tableaux vivants inspired by the early days of television. The conductor is Kazushi Ono while the stage direction comes from the celebrated Robert Lepage.
