Need cheering up? 3 weeks ago now but our Magic Flute might raise a few smiles. Especially the sea cadets. All here: kennetopera.co.uk/gallery_fl…

Political messages are *usually* imposed upon music (especially untexted music) rather than inherently contained within it. We must resist the notion that Elgar's, Vaughan Williams's & Walton's music has become "Brexity" after the fact.

How it used to be. The British military authorities put on Bohème at San Carlo Naples, 1944-45 season. A friend who died recently, ex-RAF, was there. And stop pretending we're not part of Europe.

Well, our Magic Flute in 1950s England is over. They liked it, we liked it and Papageno (Luke Deacon) obviously liked it. Here he is with Pamina (Rachel Crisp) and Papagena (Lucy Fitt). @ArlingtonArts #Newbury

"Nobody really knows what to do with The Magic Flute". Library - outer space - posh hotel...? A subtle clue to our stage director's take. kennetopera.co.uk/next_flute… Next week!

The year's work begins: Wednesday rehearsals in The Majendie Hall, Church Lane, Speen, Newbury RG14 1SA, at 7.30pm from 23 January. Please come along if you're interested! And the picture: no relevance really, it's a Sitzprobe in another place. But it's nice!
