London Phiharmonic Orchestra's Glyndebourne 50th Anniversary Season Open for Business, Sans Sir George Christie and Fat Shaming Scandal
The Glyndebourne Festival is underway, a 50th anniversary season already marked by the sad death of its previous owner-chairman Sir George Christie, a scandal around critics' comments on a female singer's (by no means unusual) body shape, and a production of Der Rosenkavalier that opens on its Marschallin naked in the shower. And it only opened less a week ago! LINKS: Bachelorette Tenor Brad Wisk, Niki Caro's Maria Callas Biopic, Gramophone Hall of Fame 2014, Missing Modern Dance, Pauline Oliveros Kickstarter
Bradley Wisk, a 32-year-old "poperatic tenor" that was a student of Giorgio Tozzi at Indiana University in Bloomington, is among the first 25 dudes looking to get a rose from bachelorette Andi Dorfman.
