  • Eugene Onegin – Gallery – Soloists

    What the reviewers say: The Stage, What’s on Stage and Classical Music Source: Splendidly resonant Act III aria from bass Andrew Greenan. Gremin’s knock-out aria ‘The Gift of Love is Rightly Treasured’, sung with heartfelt ardour by Andrew Greenan Andrew Greenan is luxury casting as Gremin and Harriet Williams’ youthful Larina and Linda Hibberd’s sympathetic…

  • Eugene Onegin – the Chorus – Act III and miscellaneous

    Eugene Onegin – the Chorus – Act III and miscellaneous

    More comments from the Audience: We came specially from Amsterdam (where we often go to the opera), to watch that electric first performance – it was well worth the trip. The professionals were excellent, both in their singing and their acting. The orchestra flung their hearts into the music and the chorus, surging in from…

    Eugene Onegin – Gallery – Act I

    Some more comments, from participants and from audience! I love opera and this was my first time taking part in a community opera chorus. I loved it…with a passion. Behind this project, there are a multitude of stories about people’s individual motivation to perform and publicly succeed in front of family and friends, I listened…

    Eugene Onegin Gallery – The Chorus Act II

    We have another review!  And some comments from participants: My only regret about playing the cello in Eugene Onegin was that it was impossible to watch any of it at the same time! I tried once, during the third performance, and very nearly lost my place. I suppose it was a case of not being able to make the cake AND…

  • Eugene Onegin – the tribute song

    Every year, when we finish an opera, the wonderful Liz Goldman produces a song to-the-tune-of various musical themes from the work, which the chorus sing to the principals and production team at the post production party.  These songs are always marvelous, (I particularly treasure ‘from Carmelite to Armalite’ for Boheme).  Liz is a genius, and this…

  • Eugene Onegin – final performance 17th July 2011

    Eugene Onegin – final performance 17th July 2011

    I am in a really bad mood when we arrive at the Halls, seriously grumpy, even another review isn’t enough to cheer me up. But by the time I’ve got into my costume for act I, been re-introduced to the man who taught me maths when I was 12, and helped wrap a dozen bottles…

  • market research, test trading and marketing

    It was in my mind to post this on my other blog, but in the true spirit of being aware of my market, I’m putting it where it will be seen by the people I want to see it!  If you are thinking, what, no Opera? be patient, I’ll get there. I’ve been supporting my…

    Eugene Onegin – Third night – 15th July 2011

    I’ve realised that the reason my post for the 2nd night was so short was that I was completely bowled over by what a good night it was, and I was just revelling in the glow.  Nick had come up and told us that he didn’t allow sliding or regression and we took him at…

  • A Night Off from the Opera

    A Night Off from the Opera

    It feels really weird not being in Onegin-land for a day.  I actually go to work, and talk about something other than music, very strange!And despite not getting to bed until 1am and being awake again at 5, I decide I do have the energy for writing group.I have a completed story about Cretan bull…
