She was a remarkable interviewee - possibly the best I've ever had - and it's a great preview for the production. It sounds like Richard Eyre's return to redirect the production for the first time since it was first shown in 1994 has made a big impact.

Has anyone one read his book, 'Foreign Parts'? I found it fascinating.]]> Interviews Thu, 27 Nov 2008 01:16:27 GMT http://musicalcriticism.forumotion.net/interviews-f1/sir-thomas-allen-t54.htm#199 http://musicalcriticism.forumotion.net/interviews-f1/sir-thomas-allen-t54.htm http://musicalcriticism.forumotion.net/interviews-f1/anja-silja-t46.htm operaspark
How about having an interview with soprano Anja Silja who is about to play the witch for the first time in the ROHs 'Hansel und Gretel'? She's had an extensive career, i can imagine she'd be very interesting to talk to. I don't think she has been at the ROH for a while either.]]> Interviews Thu, 20 Nov 2008 15:18:55 GMT http://musicalcriticism.forumotion.net/interviews-f1/anja-silja-t46.htm#166 http://musicalcriticism.forumotion.net/interviews-f1/anja-silja-t46.htm http://musicalcriticism.forumotion.net/interviews-f1/diana-damrau-t42.htm Petra
how about DD who is already rehearsing "Hänsel+Gretel" or will start very soon.
She gave her Wigmore Hall debut in the beginning of November (sadly no review ) and her first Lucias at Met were praised in the newspapers.

He is just about to open with Mathilde Di Shabran and he is the most exciting tenor today, and the heir to those great Bel Canto legends Alfredo Kraus, and of course Pavarotti.

Does anyone have any thoughts about this? Dramatically, one would think that the part was right up his street, even if he's a little too Latin-looking ...
