How unwelcome to the One Show. Tonight's guest has one of the most | :00:22. | :00:27. | |
powerful voices in the business. He resonates, he reverberates in | :00:27. | :00:37. | |
:00:37. | :00:42. | ||
French, German, English, Russian Please welcome one of the world's | :00:42. | :00:52. | |
:00:52. | :00:56. | ||
greatest tenors, at the maestro, So very nice to have you here. You | :00:56. | :01:00. | |
are full of cold, as well! Anybody who will hear my voice now will | :01:00. | :01:05. | |
never guess that I have been making my living for over half a century | :01:05. | :01:12. | |
singing opera. I have a cold! very resident tonight! You have | :01:12. | :01:18. | |
ginger and honey? Ginger and honey, you guessed. They recommended it to | :01:18. | :01:26. | |
me. And at a bit of whisky! You are a global star, you have houses all | :01:26. | :01:31. | |
over the world, where are you spending Christmas? You have grown | :01:31. | :01:36. | |
children here in Britain? Yes, I have three English granddaughters. | :01:36. | :01:43. | |
They are the daughters of one of my sons, he also sings. I know that | :01:43. | :01:49. | |
one day they will be singers. They have beautiful voices. I will see | :01:49. | :01:53. | |
them tomorrow morning before leaving quickly, we will spend | :01:53. | :01:59. | |
Christmas in Mexico, it is our tradition. We get all the family, | :01:59. | :02:07. | |
on my sister's side, with the nephews, everybody, I never say I | :02:07. | :02:13. | |
am dreaming of a white Christmas! I always have a warm Christmas! | :02:13. | :02:21. | |
do you have for Christmas lunch? have a turkey. The evening of the | :02:21. | :02:30. | |
24th. And the 25th, you need to same, you know. -- you eat the same. | :02:30. | :02:35. | |
And lots of singing, no doubt. But it is expected that we will fork | :02:35. | :02:38. | |
out a �13 billion before Christmas. But that bonanza will come too late | :02:38. | :02:42. | |
for many shops and companies that have gone into administration this | :02:43. | :02:49. | |
year. So why are so many of them still trading? | :02:49. | :02:53. | |
Almost 2000 companies have gone into administration this year. One | :02:53. | :02:56. | |
of the most recent big brand names to join them is the electrical | :02:56. | :03:04. | |
chain, it. Famous retailers like Clinton's, the card shop, they have | :03:04. | :03:08. | |
all gone in two administrations. But they have managed to survive | :03:09. | :03:12. | |
and continue to trade on the High Street. How is it possible for a | :03:12. | :03:20. | |
brand to survive if it is in administration? This London camply | :03:20. | :03:26. | |
-- cab company has been making the iconic black taxi, it caught in the | :03:26. | :03:32. | |
administrators in October. At the factory, Matthew Hammond from Price | :03:32. | :03:38. | |
Waterhouse Coopers has the task of sorting out the mess. So what is | :03:38. | :03:41. | |
administration? It is like when a person goes bankrupt, they cannot | :03:41. | :03:48. | |
pay their debt, in this situation, it is for a company. My job as an | :03:48. | :03:52. | |
administrator is to diagnose the problems and try and fix them, then | :03:52. | :03:57. | |
ultimately sell the business on to a new investor. But it looks as if | :03:57. | :04:00. | |
this place has been effectively closed down? And you have to make | :04:00. | :04:04. | |
some choices. You cannot do everything abyss this would | :04:04. | :04:09. | |
normally do. One of the first things the administrators did was | :04:09. | :04:13. | |
to stop production and make over half the workforce reduction -- | :04:13. | :04:21. | |
redundant. These men all lost their jobs. They are out today, trying to | :04:21. | :04:27. | |
drum up support for their campaign to keep the factory up and running. | :04:27. | :04:31. | |
I worked there for 37 years. It is a hard time of year to be made | :04:31. | :04:36. | |
redundant, and to fight for your rights, to get what you are due, it | :04:36. | :04:41. | |
makes things worse. What do you want to achieve by your campaign? | :04:41. | :04:46. | |
To put a bit of pressure on the administrators, to basically give | :04:46. | :04:51. | |
us a fair chance to get our jobs back. Because the company went into | :04:51. | :04:54. | |
administration, workers only received a statutory redundancy | :04:54. | :04:57. | |
package from the government, receiving far less than they would | :04:57. | :05:03. | |
have been paid otherwise. 156 people lost their jobs, more than | :05:03. | :05:08. | |
half the workforce, but that many people really have to go? I think | :05:08. | :05:12. | |
in the special circumstances we see here, that was the most difficult | :05:12. | :05:17. | |
decision, but necessary to preserve what is left. Is this just a way of | :05:17. | :05:22. | |
avoiding debt, writing them off, going into administration? At that | :05:22. | :05:28. | |
is a myth, the debt is not avoided. I think it is difficult decision to | :05:28. | :05:33. | |
go into administration for a lot of directors. It is the | :05:33. | :05:35. | |
administrator's job to pay of company debt. Banks and secured | :05:35. | :05:40. | |
creditors are always at the top of the list. They get paid first. | :05:40. | :05:45. | |
Everyone else, including the customer, has to wait, as this man | :05:45. | :05:49. | |
found out after he waited -- ordered a kitchen from MFI it | :05:49. | :05:54. | |
shortly before the financial retailer went into administration. | :05:54. | :05:59. | |
They said you had to pay everything up front? Everything, just a few | :05:59. | :06:05. | |
pence short of 5200. A week later, we heard they had gone into | :06:05. | :06:10. | |
administration. You paid them and within a week they had gone | :06:10. | :06:14. | |
bankrupt? Yes. He never received his kitchen from MFI, and after | :06:14. | :06:18. | |
three years of waiting for the administrators to pay creditors, he | :06:18. | :06:23. | |
found that he wasn't going to get his money back either. Then he | :06:23. | :06:27. | |
discovered something that really confused him. I got the shock of my | :06:27. | :06:32. | |
life a few weeks ago, I just happened to go on to the website, | :06:32. | :06:36. | |
and lo and behold, it looks like they are selling everything they | :06:36. | :06:41. | |
used to sell. How do you feel seen a company with the same name as the | :06:41. | :06:46. | |
one that owes you �5,200? Awful, absolutely awful. | :06:47. | :06:51. | |
It is absolutely terrible, how did that happen? He it does seem | :06:52. | :06:56. | |
extraordinary, but the job of the administrator is to raise as much | :06:57. | :07:00. | |
money for the failing company it can. So they look at all the assets, | :07:00. | :07:05. | |
and the brand name is an asset, such a separate company bought by a | :07:05. | :07:10. | |
brand name, and started selling furniture again. Because the debt | :07:10. | :07:13. | |
have been written off, they don't owe anything to Dennis. Christmas | :07:13. | :07:17. | |
hasn't come soon enough for businesses, but others are relying | :07:17. | :07:22. | |
on this time of year. This is a time of a lot of bankruptcies in | :07:22. | :07:26. | |
retail businesses, it seems extraordinary. This is the time | :07:26. | :07:31. | |
everybody goes out and spends money, but if you get the calculations | :07:31. | :07:35. | |
wrong, you do the maths, people will have problems. That is what | :07:35. | :07:39. | |
seems to be happening, retailers are facing a really tough times at | :07:39. | :07:43. | |
the moment. A lot of people are shopping online, the bargains of | :07:44. | :07:48. | |
there are harder to get, it means businesses are making less money, | :07:48. | :07:53. | |
so it is difficult. If you want to have a high street, you have got to | :07:53. | :07:59. | |
spend money in it otherwise the shops will go bankrupt. But as well | :07:59. | :08:03. | |
as a lack of customers, there are the reasons these companies are | :08:03. | :08:07. | |
going into administration. There are all sorts of pressures on | :08:07. | :08:11. | |
businesses, one of which is rented. We have been looking around the | :08:11. | :08:15. | |
country, and in Whitstable, some shops have been facing 80% | :08:15. | :08:20. | |
increases in rent. You can see it is very hard as a business to go on | :08:20. | :08:24. | |
operating if you see them going up like that. So businesses have to | :08:24. | :08:32. | |
adapt. Even in opera! So cinemas are showing operas lives a. That is | :08:32. | :08:40. | |
right. A 25 years ago, or 30, in London this started, I was singing | :08:40. | :08:47. | |
at the Covent garden Square, it was opera live. The people came and | :08:47. | :08:54. | |
enjoyed the performance. That was on the big screen. And that, for | :08:54. | :09:00. | |
years, it was in other places. And since then, since about six or | :09:00. | :09:08. | |
seven years, the Metropolitan Opera started with high divot -- high | :09:08. | :09:15. | |
definition, directly to the Meavy houses. Are you doing another one | :09:15. | :09:22. | |
in April? I am yes. So every theatre is bringing out the | :09:22. | :09:30. | |
possibility to a new public. It is not the same. But you get the | :09:30. | :09:36. | |
opportunity. Live opera is live opera, but it is as close as can be. | :09:37. | :09:41. | |
We look forward to that! But in any case, it is a hard time by | :09:41. | :09:44. | |
everybody, especially when I think about Christmas gifts and children, | :09:44. | :09:53. | |
you know. Many people, never mind the extra parties that you do, but | :09:53. | :09:59. | |
the toys for the children... I hope that everybody thinks. Could and | :09:59. | :10:08. | |
agree more. Is yours up, mine is! There are tears. Mine is, doesn't | :10:09. | :10:18. | |
:10:19. | :10:19. | ||
look as good, though. I got this for a tenner on the way here. There | :10:19. | :10:29. | |
:10:29. | :10:29. | ||
you are! It is Ali decorated on one side. -- only decorative. We have | :10:29. | :10:35. | |
to save money these days! Alex Reilly has been divided everything | :10:35. | :10:39. | |
you need to know when it comes to buying a Christmas tree. -- to find | :10:39. | :10:41. | |
out. It is the most wonderful time of | :10:41. | :10:45. | |
the year, when Britain goes bonkers the Christmas, but doesn't really | :10:45. | :10:51. | |
get going until you buy your Christmas tree. This furry friend | :10:51. | :10:55. | |
lives in our home until Twelfth Night, but how do we make sure we | :10:55. | :11:01. | |
choose the right one? Kluft is a master of the Christmas tree trade. | :11:01. | :11:08. | |
-- Cliff. Where do they come from? In the main, from Denmark. The once | :11:08. | :11:12. | |
and Scotland that we have, the weather has not been so good, it | :11:12. | :11:19. | |
has been too warm, in fact. So will they be more expensive? Not really, | :11:19. | :11:22. | |
because the transport from Scotland is expensive, people are price- | :11:22. | :11:26. | |
conscious, they are looking for a bit of a bargain. What advice would | :11:26. | :11:31. | |
you give somebody looking to buy a Christmas tree? The Normans are the | :11:31. | :11:37. | |
best ones, but the best smelling ones are the Norway spruce, but | :11:37. | :11:42. | |
they do tend to drop their needles. You should look out for a nice, | :11:42. | :11:47. | |
uniform tree, plenty of branches, and that is the best way to look | :11:47. | :11:52. | |
for a Christmas tree. Also make sure they are nice and green. | :11:52. | :11:57. | |
year, 8 million Christmas trees will be sold around the UK. The One | :11:57. | :12:02. | |
Show did some research and found that the average price for a six | :12:02. | :12:07. | |
but Norman is around �40, but the most expensive we could find was in | :12:07. | :12:11. | |
an exclusive part of London, where the same dream would set you back | :12:11. | :12:17. | |
�70. I am off to Lewisham to help Harry flog some of his. This is the | :12:17. | :12:22. | |
second year you have been selling them, how his business? Busier than | :12:22. | :12:29. | |
last year. We sold about 300, we did better than that already this | :12:29. | :12:38. | |
year. These ones are 35. Week by it and sat at one price. Other quality | :12:38. | :12:43. | |
the same as you would buy in a department store? Nine times out of | :12:43. | :12:48. | |
10 they are getting it from the same supplier. It will be the same | :12:48. | :12:56. | |
tree. We know how to look after them! Can I have a look at your | :12:56. | :13:04. | |
stall? We will get you write out of the front, in front of everybody. | :13:04. | :13:14. | |
:13:14. | :13:18. | ||
Get your lovely trees, everybody! �35! All day long. What are you | :13:18. | :13:26. | |
doing? That is not right! That was my sale! Do we do delivery? We can | :13:26. | :13:36. | |
:13:36. | :13:38. | ||
put a stamp on it, it might not get She will be back, she will buy one. | :13:38. | :13:47. | |
Francs for the tutorial. Best of So expensive these days! And you | :13:47. | :13:52. | |
were just saying, you were in New York buying a Christmas tree. | :13:52. | :13:57. | |
is right. I was interviewing a person that sold them and I said, I | :13:57. | :14:00. | |
hope you don't get more than you are going to sell, because we do | :14:00. | :14:06. | |
you do with all of them? It is just a pity you have to chuck that many. | :14:06. | :14:12. | |
But that is what they are grown for. You can get them for a pound or a | :14:13. | :14:19. | |
penny on the 23rd! That is my tip for you! Tomorrow, we will be | :14:19. | :14:24. | |
turning on the BBC's Christmas lights. If you switch on your | :14:24. | :14:28. | |
Christmas lights on your tree or inside your house, we would like to | :14:28. | :14:36. | |
see them. Send us your photos. have a new album out, Songs, it is | :14:36. | :14:41. | |
quite different from the opera we were talking about. 20 years! | :14:41. | :14:46. | |
tears been even more, I did an album with John Denver. Now I have | :14:46. | :14:53. | |
a new contract, so we are of course doing classical music, but I said, | :14:53. | :14:58. | |
can I do an album with popular songs, and they said yes. So that | :14:58. | :15:03. | |
is what has happened. One of the lovely people you'd duet with his | :15:03. | :15:13. | |
:15:13. | :15:16. | ||
Katherine Jenkins, we shall see you # Come what may | :15:16. | :15:25. | |
# Come what may # I will love you | :15:25. | :15:35. | |
:15:35. | :15:42. | ||
# Until my darling -- dying days. # Placido, you are still hitting | :15:42. | :15:47. | |
incredibly high notes. Will there come a time when you have to go | :15:47. | :15:54. | |
into baritone range? Most of my repertory is a baritone range. | :15:54. | :16:02. | |
After so much singing, I have done the tenor, but I still have so many | :16:02. | :16:05. | |
beautiful operas. The voice is still there. | :16:05. | :16:13. | |
I really love to do different voices. Especially now with my age, | :16:13. | :16:23. | |
:16:23. | :16:24. | ||
there are so many characters and heroes, lovers that the tenor | :16:24. | :16:29. | |
always wins, all of those roles and I still love it and enjoy it. | :16:29. | :16:36. | |
Well, it is a beautiful listen. Placido's CD of Songs is out now. | :16:36. | :16:43. | |
Now, Placido, have a look at that big telly, can you guess what this | :16:43. | :16:48. | |
is? Well, it is not a lady doing something with the eye larbs. | :16:48. | :16:55. | |
Well, it is not far away. It could abfemale, but it really a large red | :16:55. | :16:59. | |
damsel. Now, George McGavin has been out | :16:59. | :17:03. | |
and about looking at Britain's insects. | :17:04. | :17:10. | |
I've come armed with my collecting kit to my old stomping ground in | :17:10. | :17:15. | |
Oxfordshire. Today I'm collecting insects for a man who promises to | :17:15. | :17:21. | |
show me them under a different lens to this one. These amazing images | :17:21. | :17:27. | |
are the work of Tomas Rach. The photographer, has been inspired by | :17:28. | :17:33. | |
the form and the incredible detail of insects what he photographs them | :17:33. | :17:40. | |
close-up. I would like to know hor about his techniques, -- more about | :17:40. | :17:44. | |
his techniques, so I'm off to collect some insects. | :17:44. | :17:51. | |
One of the best places to collect bugs is among the leaves and the | :17:51. | :17:57. | |
litter of decaying wood. About a third of insects live in decayed | :17:57. | :18:02. | |
wood. This is a beetle lava. It has three little pairs of jointed leg | :18:02. | :18:08. | |
there is at the front. Here is a ground beetle. Now, look | :18:08. | :18:13. | |
at that. That is beautiful. Now it is quite a big one. If he stays | :18:13. | :18:18. | |
still like this, long enough, he will be perfect. I know that up | :18:18. | :18:24. | |
close the back of those wing cases are covered in tiny pits. It even | :18:24. | :18:30. | |
has tiny hairs on his head. I think that will look fantastic. After | :18:30. | :18:35. | |
finding a ladybird a house fly and rather legy millipedes, it is time | :18:35. | :18:43. | |
to take the whole lot back to Tomas. I have been raking about in the | :18:43. | :18:47. | |
undergrowth for about an hour collecting lots of bugs and beesis. | :18:47. | :18:53. | |
This looks amazing. How do you keep them still? The | :18:53. | :19:00. | |
insects are always escaping! Well, for this occasion I am using water | :19:00. | :19:05. | |
and lava in the water. The water is a restriction. | :19:05. | :19:10. | |
What a great strik trick. Surrounding the bugs by water, | :19:10. | :19:14. | |
stops them from running away it makes them easier to photograph and | :19:14. | :19:21. | |
the orange flowers adds a perfect contrasting background. Leaving | :19:21. | :19:26. | |
Tomas to concentrate on the images, I decided to find something | :19:26. | :19:36. | |
different. Fantastic! Look at that, a water beetle it is smooth with | :19:36. | :19:41. | |
lovely feet with hairs on. They help it to swim. | :19:41. | :19:51. | |
:19:51. | :19:57. | ||
Oops! Swim like that and escape! Never mind. Dragonfly lava galo | :19:57. | :20:07. | |
rerbgs! -- galore! A back-swimmer. With a few more ready to add to the | :20:07. | :20:13. | |
collection, I can't wait to see what Tomas thinks of them. Right, I | :20:13. | :20:17. | |
have insects from a pond. Have you ever photographed them before? | :20:17. | :20:23. | |
I have never seen these before. He uses a standard lens and | :20:23. | :20:28. | |
powerful flash to high light the intrick asis of the insets. Anyone | :20:29. | :20:33. | |
with access to these cameras can have a go too. After a full day's | :20:33. | :20:36. | |
work it is time to see the final results. | :20:36. | :20:42. | |
That is lovely. The jaws of this ground beetle make it the perfect | :20:42. | :20:45. | |
predator. That is lovely. Look at all of the | :20:45. | :20:51. | |
hair there, it looks silver. Incredibly, the hairs on this | :20:51. | :20:55. | |
garden spider are used to sense wind direction and to taste and | :20:55. | :21:01. | |
smell, even. The enormous compound eyes of the house fly are made up | :21:01. | :21:11. | |
:21:11. | :21:11. | ||
of about 4,000 lenses, allowing it to see almost a full 360 degrees. I | :21:12. | :21:16. | |
am so impressed with the colours and the structures that we have | :21:16. | :21:21. | |
been able to capture on screen. Perhaps photography is a great way | :21:21. | :21:28. | |
of giving creepy crawlies the good press that they deserve. | :21:28. | :21:34. | |
George, if only you had hung on to the water beetle, that would have | :21:34. | :21:39. | |
been complete, that photo album. You have had a whale of a time | :21:39. | :21:44. | |
working on this? I don't know what you have asked for Christmas, but I | :21:44. | :21:50. | |
would want this instrument. It is 85,000 euros it can see 7,000 times | :21:50. | :21:53. | |
better than the human eye. I have filmed things that I have never | :21:53. | :21:59. | |
seen in the wild. Amazing. Let's have a look. | :21:59. | :22:07. | |
Look at those little legs! Go in on that. That is tiny, absolutely tiny. | :22:07. | :22:14. | |
This is for me, one of the most amazing eye-openers of the | :22:14. | :22:18. | |
machinery. Here is a millipede clawinging through the fame. It is | :22:18. | :22:24. | |
big, yet on its leg is a tiny mi terbgs there. | :22:24. | :22:28. | |
It is sucking the blood there. If you looked at that there would be | :22:28. | :22:33. | |
something else on that. It is a whole hidden world. | :22:33. | :22:42. | |
You also loved the water bell. These things are everywhere. They | :22:42. | :22:48. | |
have been around for 500 million years. When we have gone, water | :22:48. | :22:53. | |
bears will still be around on Earth. Did you see anything you did not | :22:53. | :22:57. | |
want to see? There is nothing that I don't want to see in the natural | :22:57. | :23:01. | |
world if you are stuck about what to buy your kids for Christmas, buy | :23:01. | :23:06. | |
them a hand lens. That will open up a whole new world that will blow | :23:06. | :23:10. | |
them away. Very cheap! There you are, Placido, | :23:10. | :23:14. | |
something for the grandkids. Just don't drop it. | :23:14. | :23:20. | |
You can see George's George's Miniature Britain on BBC One at | :23:20. | :23:26. | |
8.00pm and 9.00pm in Scotland. Now, here is Gyles Brandreth with a | :23:26. | :23:32. | |
military tune that was almost more of a sprint than a march. | :23:32. | :23:40. | |
The RAF March Past. The Royal Air Force's signature tune. With a | :23:40. | :23:45. | |
barrage of melodies it is a dog fight in a musical form, but this | :23:45. | :23:51. | |
dashing march had a surprisingly civilian start in life. | :23:51. | :23:56. | |
Today, the RAF's a precision fighting force, but in the early | :23:56. | :24:01. | |
day it is was a different story. Formed in 1918, the new RAF rose | :24:01. | :24:08. | |
from the ashes of the army's Royal Flying Corp, but the force lacked | :24:08. | :24:14. | |
pomp and ceremony. That is where an unknown musician, Henry Davis comes | :24:14. | :24:20. | |
Well, he was walking through London, during the first week of the new | :24:20. | :24:25. | |
air force and he met a old school chum. He remarked on the fact that | :24:25. | :24:29. | |
they did not have a policy for making, managing and forming bands. | :24:29. | :24:33. | |
He said, Walford, you are a musician, would you like to come | :24:33. | :24:40. | |
and do it. Three days later he was major Walford Davis of the | :24:40. | :24:43. | |
organising director of the new Royal Air Force. | :24:43. | :24:48. | |
He had no military experience? No working his way up through the | :24:48. | :24:54. | |
ranks? Overnight, a major, it is a scandal, | :24:54. | :25:02. | |
isn't it? It would be these days. Propelled into musical battle, the | :25:02. | :25:06. | |
major set to work composing his first ever ceremonial march. | :25:07. | :25:13. | |
What is this? The first proof of the March Past. You can see that | :25:13. | :25:16. | |
Walford has put in the corrections in his handwriting. | :25:16. | :25:21. | |
What does this tell us about the composer? It tells me he was not | :25:21. | :25:26. | |
versed in military writing. He put down a mark of 132. | :25:26. | :25:33. | |
What is wrong with that? It is not easy to march at. 120 or slower is | :25:33. | :25:39. | |
easier. It looks better on a parade. We can discover what 132 would | :25:39. | :25:47. | |
sound like. Here is Guy, the Bobby Crusher of the RAF. I have the | :25:47. | :25:55. | |
metronome set at 132, march away. It gets you going. | :25:56. | :26:02. | |
It does, but it could also give you a heart attack. I will stop that. | :26:02. | :26:08. | |
That is 132. That is too fast. They would be falling over. | :26:08. | :26:15. | |
As organising director of music, should major Davis have known this? | :26:15. | :26:20. | |
Undoubtedly! Against all odds, Davis' March Past was a hit with | :26:20. | :26:24. | |
the middle section added by a colleague it became an intrinsic | :26:24. | :26:30. | |
part of the RAF's identity. Here it is, performed by the Central Band | :26:30. | :26:40. | |
:26:40. | :26:42. | ||
of the RAF at a marchable 116 beats per minute. | :26:42. | :26:47. | |
He's done it! It's magnificent! Absolutely. I have played and | :26:47. | :26:52. | |
conducted it so many times but I never fail enjoying hearing it | :26:52. | :26:57. | |
again. He may have been a civilian at heart, but he delivered the | :26:57. | :27:01. | |
goods. It works That's it. There must be a good melody to start off | :27:01. | :27:11. | |
:27:11. | :27:12. | ||
with. That is what this is. But it is with the words heroic, | :27:12. | :27:18. | |
and with the notes, it is uplifting, airborne. | :27:18. | :27:24. | |
It is impressive. After one year, Major Davis | :27:25. | :27:31. | |
resigned from the RAF with a -- for a less formal career with the BBC! | :27:31. | :27:36. | |
Walford Davis may not have been cut out for military service, but he | :27:36. | :27:43. | |
left behind him a musical monument of which the RAF takes great pride | :27:43. | :27:53. | |
:27:53. | :27:57. | ||
still today, at the right speed! And as soon as that tempo hit 116, | :27:57. | :28:05. | |
Placido said, "Perfect."! Now, you have said if you rust, you rust, | :28:05. | :28:11. | |
there are no traces of rust, but what will you do in 2013? Many, | :28:11. | :28:16. | |
many different things, but to the end of the year I have a recording | :28:16. | :28:22. | |
to finish. A Christmas concert in Moscow on the 19th of December and | :28:22. | :28:30. | |
on the 22nd one in Prague and next year it is the Verdi and Wagner | :28:30. | :28:36. | |
anniversary. So a lot of Verdi operas, it is the 200th anniversary | :28:36. | :28:41. | |
of both composer's birthdays. So, keep sipping on the honey and | :28:42. | :28:46. | |
the lemon. I will need it | :28:46. | :28:52. |
