And this is the opera. The clip is a bit
dodgy, copyright-wise, because it seems to be the entire opera, Lulu by Alban Berg, which is the same as
my CD-set, starring Teresa Stratas as Lulu, Yvonne Minton as Grafin Geschwitz, Robert
Tear as various chaps and the whole thing conducted by Pierre Boulez. I had no
idea that this fantastic performance was available on DVD and I am sure that I
will buy a legal copy of it eventually:

Hedonism and Alban Berg
The children are in bed and my wife is at
her book club so I can do what I want. Stratocaster abuse, drugs, hookers – you
name it. So, hedonist that I am, I have an opera CD playing in the background
while I do a bit more editing of a manuscript for a Major International
Publisher.
