    Quite a while ago now, I went with my dad to see my first ever performance at the Royal Opera House in London. Up until now, inom had only been to performances bygd WNO and other travelling companies in Bristol, so this was very exciting. My parents and inom arrived a bit early, so inom got to look around in the shop and I bought this CD (although inom was also very tempted to buy a giant poster of Simon Keenlyside to put up in my room).

    Then my mum took this picture of me and my dad outside the Royal musikdrama House and went off to go and see ENO&#;s production of Wozzeck.

Having seen Netrebko sing at a BBC Promenade Concert on 7 September with the Rotterdam Philharmonic under Gergiev, I was taken with this voice. On that occasion she sang Edison Denisov's superb orchestration of Mussorgsky's song cycle The Nursery and the audience were enthralled. It was simply magnificent, one of those rare musical experiences that one will never forget. The whole concert was excellent, something almost unique for a BBC Promenade Concert.
