Conrad's blog is on holiday until 10th July, when it will resume with a review of the streaming of the ENO Carmen.
The Edinburgh music critic and journalist, Conrad Wilson, writes about classical music/ opera, food and wine in Scotland and from around the world. He writes about his life as a music critic, his travels to opera houses at home and abroad and the many musicians he's encountered along the way. He reviews DVD films of performances you may not have been able to attend. His wine reviews can help you to keep up-to-date with the good things available in wine shops and supermarkets.
