I just watched the first in a projected series of “aria films” by Carson Gilmore.  The first one features Morte col fiero aspetto from Hasse’s Marc’Antonio e Cleopatra.  It features the rather impressive British mezzo Rachel Labovitch and it’s rather dark and disturbing. My sort of thing!

In other news the COC has announced a series of “solo spotlights” with some members of the COC orchestra.  The first one is on December 15th with Marie Bédard.  All the details are here.
