The Ring

 Enjoyed listening to the SSG assembly recorded items. Oxford and then plunged into Gotterdammerung 1990 from the Met with Behrens, Jerusalem, Ludwig and Salminen singing magnificently and the orchestra wow! Took a break to hear David Grealy playing Widor, Franck and Guilmant brilliantly at St Patrick's Dublin. There does seem to a problem - the Wagner kept stopping and lost Dublin during the Guilmant! I found the final act very moving. I just love the final pages of the score. Watched first part of Ermione by Rossini from Glynebourne but no subtitles. Us came to a conclusion. Nelson was on good form and I ordered 2 art books to read on kindle.
