Lonely Planet review

Named for famous Mount Helicon, home to the muses and inspiration for musicians. This 15-year-old opera company is unique in Moscow for its innovative - even experimental - opera performances. Director Dmitry Bertman is known for `combining musical excellence with artistic risk', according to one local dramaturge. The Gelikon's 250-seat theatre is an intimate setting that allows for interaction between the performers and the audience.
