What Are You Listening To This Weekend?
A bit of business: San Diego Opera will continue our much appreciated tradition of being closed on Fridays in August. We'll be back Monday, August 16, 2010 for all your opera needs. In the meantime, our website should be able to assist you with everything you might need over the weekend.
As we always ask: what are you listening to this weekend?
This week we're going to listen to Giordano's Andrea Chenier, an opera we love but rarely listen to.
After that we'll listen to 60's R&B rock & roll sounds of 2010's The Like.
Share your listening plans in the comment section. And make it a good one!

On the stereo right now is the CD set of Offenbach's Orphee aux enfers from Opera de Lyon with Marc Minkowski conducting (Dessay, Fouchecourt, Naouri, Podles). And on the 'on deck' shelf:
- Vesselina Kasarova's Schubert, Brahms, Schumann Lieder CD
- the Sony CD of Gary Graffman playing Prokofiev pinao concerti and sonati with George Szell and the Cleveland Orchestra.
Have a good summer break!
