Mozart's Reqiuem. Sometime in March. I don't know the name of the choir, but my one of my friend's godfathers is in it and apparently they are one of Edinburgh's best choirs. :)

The fact that they're not really famous doesn't bother me, anything for Mozart's Reqiuem :D

Lots of great concerts & recitals coming up here in Sydney. Ones I'm really looking forward to are Beethoven's Archduke trio, Schoenberg's Pierrot Lunaire, Beethoven's String Quartet Op. 132 & Schubert's Winterreise. All by Australian performers probably not known by members here, but the Goldner String Quartet has done some recordings on Naxos. I like to go to chamber concerts particularly & I usually post what I've been to on the latest concerts thread...

I think I will be going to a cool concert in September. The University of Oslo will celebrate it's 200th anniversary, there's one really posh concert for invited guests only but there will also be what was described to me as "classical concert marathon" in the university library.

As I may have mentioned before, I sometimes attend a free 30 minute recital on Fridays, it goes under the description of Cultural Lunch and it's a great thing. :D I suppose this concert marathon will be something like a much extended version.

websites about concerts

Hey guys!

Those are some great concerts. I'm personally looking forward to seeing Edo conducting Beethoven's 7th.

If you're looking for info about upcoming concerts, 2mbs gives you a rundown of whats coming up on a weekly basis: http://www.2mbs.com/

I also found this cute Sydney classical music guide http://www.debussycat.com.

Anything else? I was using live guide before. That's pretty good too.

Our local orchestra has a fully-staged production of Bernstein's Mass scheduled in May. Do not yet have tickets, but seriously considering it. I've heard this is the only production of Mass in the USA this year.

Bought my ticket today! Performances are next weekend. It is being advertised as "The only fully staged production in the continental United States on the 40th Anniversary of its premiere."

I'm looking forward to Denis Matsuev's recital in SF on 5/15. Here's the program:

Schubert, Sonata A Minor, op. 143
Beethoven, Sonata F Minor #23, op. 57 (Appasionata)
Liszt, Mephisto Waltz #1, S.514
Rachmaninoff, Sonata B-flat Minor #2, op.36 Second Edition

That's quite a set of knuckle-busters!

I'm going to see Lawrence Zazzo in recital at the opera house in Oslo in November. Tickets for the 2011-12 season were put on sale at 9am today and I tried getting tickets between 9.30 and 10. Bad idea...but I tried again this afternoon and it worked just fine. Prices were so low I can even afford to get tickets for another opera or ballet later (I just have to have some time to decide first.) :)
