Anja Harteros – Soprano au Sommet

Lirico Spinto on France Musique pays tribute to "a great singer of our time."  A great singer of our time? Um, Yeah!! Anja Harteros sings scenes and arias from operas by Mozart, Handel, Verdi, and Wagner—with a little help from her friends, including Jonas Kaufmann, Piotr Beczala, and Matti Salminen, to name a few. This 90-minute program is available on the France Musique site for a few years, and you can also download it from iTunes as a podcast.

One More Thing About Der Glyndenkavalier...

You can view it on Arte, too, but with no subtitles and (at least on my system) the picture isn't as good. I'm not sure how long it will be available there. 

See it on the Glyndebourne site while it's still online.
