This month, I have


  • Fallen asleep in a production of Prokofiev'sRomeo and Juliet by the Russian State Ballet Company of Siberia.
  • Remained awake for a CUMS concert featuring Shostakovitch's Festive Overture and the Rite of Spring performed by an orchestra with two contrabassoons.
  • Fallen asleep in a production of Howell's insufferably tedious Requiem
  • Remained awake for Rossini's Petite Messe Solonelle in the second half of the same concert
  • Fallen asleep while one of my colleagues was presenting interesting research to an audience of four people including the owner of the company
  • Remained awake and rapt for a production of Tosca this evening


I think I may be a dormouse; in other news, there's an awful lot of music around in Cambridge.
