NY City Opera Anticipates A Controversial New Director
"You can't blame City Opera regulars for worrying about what Gerard Mortier has in mind. Not many American opera buffs have direct experience with his work, which has been seen predominantly in Europe. But those who follow the field have certainly heard about him, especially from his 10-year tenure as director of the prestigious Salzburg Festival, which ended in 2001." The New York Times 05/011/08
