Vaughan Williams and His World is the subject of this year's Bard Festival and as usual, the crowning event is an opera-in-concert: I'm delighted that VW's Falstaff opera has been chosen.  New Yorkers have had several chances to hear this tuneful and heartwarming opera in recent years,  as Bronx Opera has brought it out in at least 3 seasons.  Botstein's performance will be Aug. 13 and i believe tickets go on sale to the public March 9.  The rest of the festival will feature VW chamber, vocal and orchestral works, panel discussions and music of relevant contemporaries.
