    Aha, my review of Orlando has now gone up at the Opera Britannia website. Rather late in the day, but I gather they have recruited someone new to get the reviews up much quicker in the future. Here is what I said: Rating: Scottish Opera – Theatre Royal, Glasgow, 14 February 2011 Scottish Opera’s Orlando…

  • Redesigning the Cathedral Website

  • Seeing and hearing

    Its funny the difference that video can make to a conversation. I found myself earlier this week engaged in a meeting via skype.
