Conrad sends his best wishes to all his readers for the festive season and thanks you all for reading his blog this year. He's been a bit poorly so is taking a break from writing his blog during December. Please keep reading his past blogs and sending comments in. There will be the usual list of countries where his readers live, around New Year time. The list is longer this year. Recently there have been large readership numbers in Russia and USA and ongoing readership from around the world. A big thank you from Conrad.

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.
