Slovenian Opera

[mikehopf]

Interesting if somewhat esoteric program on tonight on Radio Slovenia ARS-3.

The composers listed are predominantly 19th & early 20th Century.

Fuller details are given on the site.

Sorry, I don't do Slovenian. Please could you elaborate...

[mikehopf]

For those who do do Slovenian or are more adventurous, the following website gives detailed information on each of these composers:

The translations help.

The broadcast consisted of arias and ensembles from the operas of Michl, Jenko, Vilhar, Gerbic, Ipavec, Simoniti, Lajovic, Skerjanc & Liposek.

The music was most attractive - much of it in the Czech style -  and I'm inspired to seek out the complete operas.

Can Christopher and others help  me here?

May I request that details be posted here in English from the sources provided? That would save us all from having to do the same job...

Mike - you don't give the website address which you mention...
