Edit: Anja Harteros’ singing Strauss last four songs. I missed the first 2min! ARGH!
——-
i missed the first part of Il Trionfo del tempo e del disinganno yesterday with Hillary Summers!! argh. Actually knew about it already but had a meeting around the time so knew there was no chance. The second part is tonight, along with a bunch of things looking quite promissing, here in listing format:
Today, 3/Sep/2016:
1800h GMT time (need a converter soon to eastcoast, i think around 2pm..), Il Trionfo.. 2nd part, with Hillary Summers.
2115h GMT, Alice Coote’s singing Händel, broadcast on bbc3 radio (and should be archived)
4/Sep/2016, 1730h GMT, Mitsuko Uchida’s recital from Salzburg.
4/Sep/2016, 1830h GMT, Mitsuko Uchida, again!!, playing Schönberg in London! i’m guessing Salzburg is a replay..
4/Sep/2016, 1930h GMT, Contralto Hillary Summers again, with Carolyn Sampson and The King’s Consort, singing Mendelssohn’s Paulus (whatever that is..), from Bucharest.
5/Sep/2016, 1803h GMT, Reneta Pokupic sings the role Cherubino from Ghent.
5/Sep/2016, 1930h GMT, some more Carolyn Sampson singing Händel from Bucharest. At this point i think we can conclude there must be a Händel + early music festival going on there! The nice Radio România Muzical site is offering me a “free try” to their radio player, in english 🙂 which is nice compare to my attempt to navigate Dutch at the Klara website for Il Trionfo…
6/sep/2016, 16h GMT, Anya Harteros singing Strauss 4 last song in Romania.
6/Sep/2016, 1930h GMT, back to Bucharest, they brought their packed CT package for early music!! Catone in Utica, but by Vinci, with a host of big names CT..
Händel is a great way to start early morning (if your schedule gets there!). Since missing yesterday, i went searching on tube, and found this with Amanda Forsythe! and a CT though, grrrr, but i think that must be the local CT that my hausmate once attended recital and really liked his voice.. i might also have heard him during the last BEMF ? Anyhow, here’s music to start the morning, to the new-found spirit given i finally managed to find my missing 10^8 missing energy level last noon! (ps- in case you didn’t recognize, this is the *same* music for the duet to end his “Arianna in Creta”)
