To start the week-end, I thought I might interest you with a little blind test.

The winner will have no prize but my deepest consideration.

When will you disclose the result ?
As soon as someone finds it, I would hope...
OK, so here's a clue;
It's French (not a big clue, I reckon) and it will be performed in 2007 by the MET...
Any suggestions?
Faust ?
And we have a winner!
Faust it is...
By Charles Gounod.
Extract: start of the 4th act, Boris Christoff singing Méphistolphélès in this 1959 EMI version conducted by André Cluytens
