En route to @TheStage Awards (I was a judge) and crossing the bridge to @RoyalOpera I was stopped in my tracks by this. Who better to sing Ray Davies’ classic Waterloo Sunset than @barbjungr.bsky.social (And I am in paradise.)

#morninglistening to 3 Decca-Dutchmen: now the 1960 #AntalDoráti recording from London w/the RoyalOpera now on Decca. It can't touch Dohnányi orchestrally, but the cast-London, Rysanek, Tozzi-is superb. I quite like the "stage noises" this studio recording introduces.

Just back from literally fantastic #TalesofHoffmann at RBO. 5 star reviews were fully justified.
Curtain call for #TalesofHoffmann with @JuanDiegoFlorez and old man, having been schoolboy & ardent lover in earlier acts!👏💐 Poster for Hoffmann outside RoyalOpera House

So the RoyalOpera (still on Xitter) is having Anna Netrebko back to launch its 2025-6 season. I hope the Met will never follow suit. Forgive and forget? No. This opportunist actively supported Putler's re-election campaign and did the below. Too late, she saw which side her bread was buttered on.

#Opera Royal Opera’s first Makropulos Case is bold and busy: Katie Mitchell layers smartphones and a new Emilia–Krista subplot—fascinating yet distracting. Musically, it soars: Ausrine Stundyte mesmerises as Emilia Marty; Jakub Hrůša and orchestra shine. Were you there? #RoyalOpera #Janacek

Classic scene from Le Bohème.

Generally, when an opera starts with a woman coughing you need to assume she's not going to have a great time.
