Here is a snippet from the performance of Alma's opera Cinderella in Vienna in December: Cinderella's sad ballad from Act I. When the stepmother has shown her true face, Cinderella realizes for the first time that she is completely alone in the world and that her stepmother and stepsisters really hate her. She sings a ballad about a lonely beggar girl who is deluded to think that there are people around who love her. When Cinderella later flees from the ball, she will sing the end of this aria to the prince. The prince is haunted by the melody, and especially by the painful harmony on the word 'Dunkel' ('darkness'). And this is how he will eventually find Cinderella in the end: not with a shoe, but through this melody. Theresa Krügl sings Cinderella.

Classic establishment is a cruel place...
Total slamming by Christian Berzin (Neue Züricher Zeitung) about Luzern performance
"The low and high point of the previous Lucerne Festival experienced in one day! At noon a "child prodigy" (Alma Deutscher) without a spark of genius - neither as a violinist nor as a pianist (and certainly not as a composer). In the evening for the grandiose Berliner Philharmoniker with Kirill Petrenko! Unbelievable what this conductor demanded - unbelievable what he got!"
