          Elgar - 'Mina' - Elgar wrote music for only two of his favourite dogs, Dan the bulldog who features in the Enigma Variations, and Mina, the last piece he wrote and it is so delightful! Here's the music set to pictures of his life.

            Always interesting to hear a performer's own cadenza.

            I would've loved to be at the meeting when they came up with that concept. It might be the worst thing I've ever seen, which in a roundabout way makes it kind of good.

                        Romeo and Juliet by Berlioz. I went to see this at the Proms on Saturday. It's good to finally watch it with subtitles.
