Gian Carlo Menotti, The Consul

A conversation today struck off in the direction of bureaucracy, and then "The Consul."

A few years ago, I had watched a nice early-television version on Youtube, but it seems to have been pulled. A bit of searching found some snippets from it - a studio version in German from Vienna Volksoper (1973)

• Menotti: The Consul (Historical Studio Production 1963)
  https://youtu.be/x9txLziIQ0k
• Ljuba Welitsch as The Foreign Woman in The Consul
  https://youtu.be/zeMMG440Ce0
• From the Vienna Volksoper Orchestra recording
  http://www.arkivmusic.com/classical/Name/Friedrich-Nidetzky/Performer/212071-2
  Orchestra of the Wiener Volksoper
  Conductor: Franz Bauer-Theussl
  Sekretärin – Gloria Lane
  Italienerin – Ljuba Welitsch

There are dozens of arias on the tube - Neway's version in English was my favorite

• To This We've Come from the Consul - Patricia Neway

Winter was hard

Winter was hard

During one of the recent blizzards, the phrase "winter was hard" slipped into mind - I hadn't heard that Kronos performance for ages, so I went scouting for it. Found it, and another piece of the same sentiment

Winter was hard.

Throwback Thursday - Techno Boy Justin and the Couple from TOE

Throwback Thursday 25 March 2015

Maybe it's the first spring rain, but Aqua covers have crept into my brain. I thought I had these already posted, but I guess not. The two that stick in my mind most are the ones by technoboyjustin and the couple from florida
