I wonder if you would be kind enough to let me know how much of Susanna Christie gave in London. In the Ambronay performance no fewer that 9 arias were shorn of their 'B' section and da capo, an unforgivable piece of butchery.

I wasn't aware of cuts to B sections and if they'd done so many I'm sure I would have noticed!
