Jephtha
Labels:
opera review
We went to see Handel's Jephtha at the Coliseum last week. Sitting in the 4th row of the stalls, we had few complaints about the audibility of the words though the chorus could have worked rather harder to project the text. Still, I'd be curious to know how the text sounded in other parts of the house
