Independent Opera's production of Pelleas et Melisande, with Andrew Foster-Williams' powerful performance as Golaud, is on the short list for the Royal Philharmonic Society's awards. The list is here. The list also includes the ENO and the ROH's production of Harrison Birtwistle's The Minotaur.
The production of Pelleas et Melisandeis also going to make an appearance at the Buxton Festival next year, which is more good news.

This is great news. It's a fantastic production and a tremendous Golaud, and well-worth getting up to Buxton for.
