Coming Up Live This Week

[salymap]

And your cricket HS, don't forget that.I've done my poor old best but notgood enough I'm afraid.

[antongould]

The time has come, I think, for someone else to pick out a few LIVE performances and draw them to the attention of those others
who might be interested. However, since the number of comments on live performance averages about 3 per event for anything on the "Performance" thread, it does seem a waste of time.

Apparently football, politics, stormy weather and alphabet associations are of far more interest to this "music loving" assembly.

So enjoy your CD collections, your bargain buys and your apathy.

HS

I can see where you are coming from HS and feel terribly guilty having just posted about football, the weather and a CD/DVD drive! But I can say if no one picks up the mantle I shall miss the thread and your comments terribly.

What??!! Not the Lutos Concerto, Bbm? Terrific work, and conducted by a fellow composer, this should be well worth hearing.

Thanks, HS and sals!

To show my ignorance ferney, I heard a little of the Luto beginning on iPlayer and thought it sounded like something fromthe old Electronic Workshop.

After weeks of drought, nothing is coming up (except my bile) to quench my thirst for live orchestral music.

I shan't be around to suffer next week, so will see you all later.

Just checked the listings, pretty thin pickings for the orchestral enthusiast, I agree HS

Have a good break

Coming up tomorrow - Act 3 of Tristan und Isolde from the BBCSSO under Runnicles

Petra Maria Schnitzer (soprano) ..... Isolde
Robert Dean Smith (tenor) ..... Tristan
Lioba Braun (mezzo) ..... Brangäne
Matthew Best (bass) ..... King Mark
Andrew Rees (tenor) ..... Melot
Benedict Nelson (Baritone)... Helmsman
Ben Johnson (Tenor)...Shepherd

Richard Strauss' Metamorphosen will provide the warm-up.

Having missed Act 2 because of a rather bad cough, I started a cold yesterday - not the best timing! However, it hasn't metamorphosed (ahem) into a cough yet, so I won't let it put me off (I just hope that I won't end up sneezing )

Are you sure?



Get better soon!

[Flosshilde]

Thanks, but as it's only just started I'm looking forward (in a negative sense ) to at least 2 weeks of it.
