Dear Friends
As someone who drove 1000 kms to hear the Laon production on the 23 November, I have just received the following information from Philippe Do, the principal tenor.
Unfortunately, no recording was made during the tour ; but a studio recording was made in September in Bratislava and should be released in the next few months under the label BRILLIANT CLASSICS.
All best
Philippe DO
The opera, in my humble view, while essentially a romance and not dealing with profundities, is musically a masterpiece.
I will tomorrow be sending you an e-mail with a pdf attachment of my Hummel & His Great Colleagues Festival, May 2-9, Bordeaux, my part in the "Resurrecting Hummel" project.
Best wishes
Ian Christians
