- Six months ago, Maltese journalist Daphne Caruana Galizia was brutally killed by a car bomb just meters from her home. The investigation into her killing is ongoing, but there is little doubt that she was murdered because of her work. With a brazen, unapologetic and uncompromising style, she denounced corruption, nepotism, and all kinds of criminal behaviors in her tiny EU member state. A group of 45 journalists representing 18 news organizations from 15 countries picked up Daphne's work after it was abruptly halted by her gruesome death on the doorstep of Europe. For five months they kept digging - poring over her findings, gathering documents, talking to sources - to try to get to the bottom of the many leads the formidable woman left behind. The Daphne Project was coordinated and led by Forbidden Stories, a Paris-based organization established specifically to continue the work of killed, imprisoned, or otherwise incapacitated journalists. The Organized Crime and Corruption Reporting Project (OCCRP) facilitated the sharing of documents and information across the participating organizations and assigned researchers and reporters to investigate the many allegations about wrongdoing among Malta's elite. The sun was shining on the day assassins took Daphne's life. Now her colleagues will shine many lights onto the stories that killed her. On April 17, we will start revealing what Daphne left behind.

- The creation of Daphne was laborious, especially from the poetic point of view (due to the modest talent of the librettist, Joseph Gregor), but on 15th October 1938 the opera was finally premièred at Dresden's Staatstheater. On the podium was the young conductor Karl Böhm. This opera is a masterpiece of early 20th-century vocal music. Structured in a single act, Daphne is a very consistent work with a rich musical vein. Strauss's orchestration appears, as always, remarkably refined. Vocal writing is demanding for all the main characters, but especially so for the protagonist, here finely interpreted by a magnificent June Anderson. Soon available also in DVD.
