But who needs paper clutter.
So: what time is it available online tomorrow?"...the isle is full of noises,
Sounds and sweet airs, that give delight and hurt not.
Sometimes a thousand twangling instruments
Will hum about mine ears, and sometime voices..."

That cheered me up no end !!
Have you visited one of their stores this milennium ?
( in the immmortal words of Del in. Planes Trains and Automobiles " ..and if they told you that wolverines make great house pets, would you believe that too ?")I will not be pushed, filed, stamped, indexed, briefed, debriefed or numbered. My life is my own.
I am not a number, I am a free man.

The highlight for me is "Semiramide" on Sept 4th, with Sir Mark Elder conducting the OAE, fine singers including Albina Shagimuratova, Daniela Barcellona, Ildebrando D'Arcangelo.
For the operatically inclined there is also the Royal Opera "Boris" on 16 July, and an interesting-looking "Makropulos" with Belohlavek and the BBCSO, starring Karita Mattila, on Aug 19th.
And also, the Glyndebourne "Barber" on 25 July.Last edited by David-G; 12-04-16, 23:37.

There may be an "embargo" imposed by the BBC on outlets, but once the material is in the hands of the general public I don't see how the public can be expected to obey an embargo they have probably never heard about.
Certainly if I had not read this thread I would have been completely unaware of it, and would not have thought twice about passing on the information. And I still don't see any reason to regard myself as being bound by it. It is not as if the printed programmes say "Not for release before... ".
