Finally, the season kicks off and it is with Linda di Chamounix in a concert performance.

More information on the plot at this Wikipedia link
Of course, Intermezzo has been there and has the story of the first performance here.

And in today's BBC3 In Tune we had a surprise musical preview:

08/09/2009 Jennifer Koh, Mark Elder
Available on IPlayer since today with 7 days left.
Presented by Sean Rafferty. With violinist Jennifer Koh and conductor Mark Elder.

You can listen to an extract of Monday's recording of Oper Rara here on In Tune

Scroll to Min 1.12 to hear Eglise Gutiérrez sing "O luce di quest'anima"!!!

Enjoy!
