I saw on your channel sometimes a Pianiplayer who made a lot of fun. It would be nice, if you could give me the name and if I could buy a DVD of him. Is ir possible, to send me an email that I can get the name. Thank you very much!!!!

Michael Tilson Thomas has written, narrates, conducts the orchestra and performs in (along with 4 actors) a tribute to his grandparents called “The Thomashevskys.” His grandparents, Boris & Bessie Thomashevsky, were stars of the American Yiddish Theatre and very colorful characters. This is a wonderful, heartfelt tribute and insight into the theater life. This would make a fabulous “GP” presentation. MTT performs it periodically around the country. This August he’ll be performing it at Tanglewood in the Berkshires. Probably too late to arrange for a filming session for future b’cast, but do check it out!

I too would like more info on how to see or buy Chess. Also, is there a mailing list I can get added to to be made aware of upcoming shows via email?

I understand many PBS channels will broadcast the MET’s Lucia di Lammermoor with Netrebko/Beczala/Kwiecien on April 15. It was a sensational performance by all. Will WITF also carry it on that date or any other time? And will the Netrebko/Domingo/Villazon concert in Vienna be shown on WITF in its entirety anytime in the near future? If not, is it available on DVD or BlueRay?

In the past, Great Performances has rebroadcast some of the Met HD operas, but I can’t find any information about the future. Will, for instance, they be airing the recent Lucia di Lammermoor? (What’s the point of listing what HAS been shown instead of what WILL be shown?)
