Music

Jess Glynne: The chart-topper who lives with her mum

The pop sensation explains how being a family girl helps her keep fame in perspective

Opera: Maria Stuarda

What a waste of huge talents

Opera: Ariadne Auf Naxos

Assuredly contrasting

Bringing back the sound of music to abandoned shuls

We follow the Budapest Festival Orchestra's mission to remind villagers of a lost community

Lana Del Ray: Ultraviolence

No Del Rey of sunshine, but she's special

Opera: Dialogues des Carmelites

From indifferent to sublime

Review: It’s Rextasy as compilation caters for Bolan completists

Kylie Minogue - Kiss Me Once (Parlophone)

Once is probably too much despite Kylie's many helpers

Opera review - Die Frau ohne Schatten (Royal Opera House): This Strauss in the House is as good as it gets
