Not in person, of course - but in the form of a film of a performance of the opera from the Salzburg Festival in 2008. It's going to be shown at the Cinema at the back of Booths Bookshop on 6th September, and will cost £14. Drinks and a light supper will also be available (and they would appreciate it if the supper was booked in advance, so they have some idea of numbers who would like it).
Meanwhile, in Brecon on the first weekend in September, there will be a harp summer school culminating in a concert on the evening of 1st September. Last year they had 28 harps on stage, and this year they're saying there will be more!
I'm considering going along for the Have A Go Day (which is free).
The event is supported by Telynau Teifi (telynau being Welsh for harps) and the Lady Llanover Society. Lady Llanover was the Victorian lady who had a passion for Welsh culture and folklore, and more or less fixed the popular idea of what the Welsh national costume should be, as well as supporting harp music.
