Music and opera on TV over the Christmas period

[alison]

There may not be much dance on TV this Christmas, but there is a lot of music and opera!

 

If you want to catch up on tonight's Barenboim-fest you'll need to use iPlayer, but apart from that:

 

Wednesday 22nd:

London Live, 9.45 pm: Wigmore Hall Classical Concerts

 

Christmas Day:

BBC2: 8.35 pm: A Musical Family Christmas with the Kanneh-Masons

BBC4: 7.05 pm: Winter Journey: Schubert's Winterreise

 

Boxing Day:

BBC4: 9 pm: Royal Opera: La bohème (2020)

(There's also a reference to ENO's The Messiah being on iPlayer - where there may be other things too)

 

Monday 27th is Stephen Sondheim night on BBC4 - from 7 pm to 11.30

 

Pretty sure I spotted some other things, too ...

And tonight (tonight ...) I didn't register the continuation of the Sondheimfest on BBC4 with West Side Story *and* Into the Woods

 

From 9 pm.
