The new Google/Alphabet arrangement may make it impossible to continue doing this blog.
I'll see if I can get things cleared up by next week.
Have a good week!

OPERA ON THE INTERNET
WITH
DAVE D' AGUANNO
Two of Jules Massenet's better-known works are on the schedule for this coming Saturday (August 22), one of which is the recent (from last Saturday) performance from this summer's Salzburg Festival of "Werther" which features Piotr Beczala in the title role and Angela Gheorghiu as Charlotte.
NPR, in its continuing series of performances from the Los Angeles Opera, this time around goes back to that opera company's 2013/2014 season for a performance of Massenet's "Thais" which originally took place in June 2014. Tenor-turned-baritone Placido Domingo sings the pivotal role of Athanael in this one.
Going all the way back to 1609, there's Claudio Monteverdi's "Orfeo" which can be heard in a performance that took place on August 13 of this year, the venue being the Torroella de Montgri Festival, located in Catalonia (Spain). This one comes to us via German Radio.
Russian opera this Saturday is represented by Tchaikovsky's "The Queen of Spades" as Swedish Radio brings us a performance from Munich (October 11, 2014).
Enjoy!
DAVE
