There's a fascinating operatic triple bill on at Hoxton Hall this week, presented by a group called Second Movement. They are doing Bernstein's Trouble in Tahiti, a new opera by Stefan Weisman and Samuel Barber's A Hand of Bridge. They are a young group who give young singers a chance, and here have come up with an interesting and challenging trio of works
Alas, we're going to miss it because this week is devoted to the London Film Festival!
