More final words on the Competition

I promise this will be my last post on the subject! The two conductors that I particularly admired in the competition, and who both got through to the second round, did not win prizes. One got through to the final and the other did not.

What does this mean? Well, the jury were looking for things in Opera conducting that I was not, and I am looking for things that they were not. I have no complaints about this, there are plenty of different styles and techniques around. I'm always open to suggestion and we should all always strive to learn and improve.

Lulu at Covent Garden tonight, I have never seen it before and don't know it well. Something else new to learn!
