Bernard MacLaverty, Belle & Sebastian and Russian opera
Met Bernard MacLavertyΜύand his wife Madeline at the Celtic Media Festival in Newry yesterday. Their youngest daughter Jude runs the festival. No, she's not the girl on the Belle and Sebastian album "If you're feeling Sinister", I did ask, that's her older sisterΜύ, a fine writer in her own right now. Jude must have been asked that question so many times.Μύ
Anyway, Bernard told me that he's just finished the libretto for another opera with a Russian composer. But that's him now finished with opera as the writer never gets much of a look in.Μύ
I said I always name checked them on Sounds Classical. He didn't look convinced!Μύ
