| English National Opera this month revived Il trittico, far more strongly cast than its original run in 1998. Real-life husband and wife Peter Coleman-Wright and Cheryl Barker (along with tenor Bonaventura Bottone) delivered a Tabarro to remember, though it paled into significance when Barker returned as Suor Angelica. She surpassed herself, though her supporting cast was of mixed talents; Anne-Marie Owens, who also sang Tabarro's Frugola and Gianni Schicchi's Zita, was far more at home in these roles than as the Zia Principessa. Schicchi was another highlight, with Andrew Shore reprising his title role/ Review |

| Shore's portrait of Grant brought out all his bluff ferocity and intellectual courage, and Croft conveyed Lee's unapproachable and slightly mournful air of dignity in a performance of theatrical stateliness and richly colored singing./ Review |
