I need a date

Hey all,

Carmina Burana is on at The Royal Albert Hall on wednesday, and i've always wanted to go but don't fancy doing it by myself.

The choir will be 400 voice strong, tickets are only about 15 for decent seats.

Any interest?

yes. one of my faves.(never heard it live though)
if you can handle going with somebody 'middle aged' and with a beard then if you get no takers PM me.

can i join the fun?

@mjs110 - :D

Hi Nhattattack...is this Carmina Burana as in the Songs of Beuren the Middle German and Latin poems / songs from the 12th Centaury?

seriously, should be pretty impressive in the AH. And the organ symphony should be fantastic. It's a whopper in there.

it is. well that's what it says in the sleeve notes of my long playing vinyl disc

"songs from Benediktbeuern"

Carmina Burana is an auditory delight, I'll check the work schedule tomorrow and get back to you but if there is any possible way to fit it in I'd love to come.

"24th of August 1987"

Oh come on! Someone had to do it!

Carmen and Carmina Burana are both wonderful pieces, hope you enjoy the latter.

Hey, as far as I'm concerned the more the merrier.

Chris Crash and Mr Smith? Should one of us grab the tickets so that we can all sit together?

Cab we pick a date that comes AFTER I gave up the notion that Seseme Street was the best cultural offering?

maybe if you get the tickets when you know who else wants to go?
there is a tiny chance that work will intervene and i'll miss it(not looking likely at the mo) but if it does don't worry you will get the money for the ticket asap

and Smith is one of the few fourmengers from the beginning i have not met, and oversight i wish to correct as soon as possible.

chris are you tall/glasses have bad judgement regarding buying brightly coloured cycling tops?
i think we have brought chips together?

'bought' chips, surely?

unless you both took them to some event, i suppose.

technically it would be bought chips together then brought them to the pub.
have you just installed a platini pedantry plugin? you need to uninstall.

yeah, after track day.

Nhat have you brought tickets yet?
if not i have been offered a ticket to the BFI to see a streetcar named desire and will go to that (if you haven't brought tickets yet)

So Nhat...you sorted for this yet? Whats happening? Who's going?

Hey,
I don't have a bank account, so I didn't buy the tickets yet. A mate is going to buy them online tomorrow...if you want out that's ok.

If someone else wants in, that's cool too.

I am so so so excited!

o.k cinema it is for me.
enjoy the performance. the rites of spring the last one i went to. not as good as when i was assisting a photographer a few years ago for a photolibrary, they hired a rehearsal hall and photographed the orchestra while they rehearsed. i ended up sitting next to the conductor for most of the session and then we slowly moved through the orchestra shooting closeups.
they played all my favorites too, in 360°surround sound.

Nhatt....and here was me thinking you'd repay the 'lock holder' favour by taking me out for the night...:( what can i say...crushed!
