OPERA WEEK - THE FLOWER DUET

http://www.balconytv.ie
BALCONYTV DUBLIN OPERA WEEK 11/11/2008
In association with Opera Ireland
PRESENTED BY NYLE WOLFE
Lakmé is an opera in three acts by Léo Delibes to a French libretto by Edmond Gondinet and Philippe Gille, based on the 1880 novel Rarahu ou Le Mariage de Loti by Pierre Loti.
The subject of the opera was suggested by Gondinet as a vehicle for the American soprano Marie van Zandt. Delibes wrote the score during 1881-82. Like many other French operas of the late 19th century, Lakmé captures the ambience of the Orient that was in vogue during the latter part of the nineteenth century; Bizet's The Pearl Fishers and Massenet's Le roi de Lahore being two other examples.

jesus, if you're going to do a video so sound-related, at least get the audio sounding good - utterly ruins it.

[Synaps4]

the least they could have done is put the mono recording into both left and right channels
