In case you missed it: our latest newsletter, February on Planet Hugill, has just gone out
My newsletter, February on Planet Hugill, has just gone out, a month that took us from Delibes' Lakmé to Wagner's Siegfried to some terrific new music. Stephen McNeff's opera A Star Next to the Moon premiered and Stephen also talked to us about the genesis of the work, there was also Gavin Higgin's terrific new Horn Concerto, not to mention music by Helen Grime and Freya Waley-Cohen, not forgetting ENO's revival of Poul Ruders' The Handmaid's Tale. Transgender tenor Holden Madagame talked to us about their journey towards singing Mime in Siegfried, and interviews included film composer Eímear Noone, soprano Jenny Stafford on performing Puccini's Manon Lescaut to open English Touring Opera's Spring season, Polish-born, Australian composer Paul Kopetz on his latest disc and composer Jacques Cohen on his Charles Dickens-inspired monodrama, The Lady of Satis House.You can read the latest issue on MadMimi.If you don't already receive it, then sign up here.
