Ringless
A note in this month's Opera magazine that the new Intendant at Strasbourg has cancelled the David McVicar Ring which has been garnering plaudits. They have performed each opera individually but there are no plans to perform the entire cycle. Let's hope someone else picks the production up. Strasbourg is a lovely place to visit and the theatre delightful, it would have been a fine place to take in what seems to have been an intelligent and theatrical production.
