The director and artistic leader of Punto Arte and the annual Punto Arte Festival, Eva Buchmann, creates opera productions that are developed in Tuscany and then travel across the globe. Her work is rooted in the thoughtful simplicity of traveling stages and the tradition of Commedia dell\u2019arte.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With experience at major venues such as the Stanislavski Theatre in Moscow, Eva Buchmann has made it her mission to explore new performance spaces. Cleverly reduced to the essentials, she brings the magic of grand opera to opera houses, concert halls, factories, palaces, hotels, and warehouses with small-scale productions across the Netherlands, Switzerland, Germany, Italy, the USA, and at festivals in Carmel, Malta, St. Moritz, Leipzig, and Amsterdam.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Recent productions include Haydn\u2019s wanderlust-filled apothecary opera Lo speziale<\/em> staged in a tiny Fiat Cinquecento that doubles as a self-contained set, as well as Ludmilla<\/em>, an opera parody by Erich Ziegler composed in the Westerbork transit camp, Beethoven\u2019s Fidelio<\/em>, and Rossini\u2019s La scala di seta<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Her upcoming performances will take her to the Ludwigsburg Castle Festival in 2026 with Lo speziale<\/em>, to the Tonhalle Orchestra Zurich with La scala di seta<\/em>, and to the Kyoto Symphony Orchestra with Fidelio<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Her repertoire includes many operas from the 17th and 18th centuries, as well as works by Verdi, Donizetti, Mascagni, Stravinsky, and Frid. Further productions include: Handel\u2019s Alcina<\/em> (Nikkikai Opera Tokyo, Japan), Handel\u2019s Semele<\/em> (Teatr Wielki \u0141\u00f3d\u017a, Poland), Mozart\u2019s Le nozze di Figaro<\/em> (Piccolo Festival d\u2019Udine, Italy, and Rijeka National Theatre, Croatia), Der Schauspieldirektor<\/em>\/Mozart with the Bergen Philharmonic Orchestra, The Snow Queen<\/em>\/Hefti and Der Schauspieldirektor<\/em>\/Mozart with the Tonhalle Orchestra Zurich.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n\n
