For the third year running, the 43 critics of Opernwelt magazine have awarded the Opera House of the Year title to…. Frankfurt.

What’s more, Frankfurt Opera Choir is Choir of the Year, Lydia Steier is Director of the Year for Aida and Frankfurt’s Tannhäuser is co-winner of Performance of the Year.

Looks like you can please most of the critics all of the time.
