Another interesting release from Retrospect Opera is a new disc of three Dibdin pieces: The Jubilee (written for Garrick's Shakespeare Jubilee of 1769), Queen Mab (composed for the festivities in Stratford) and Ratchet Mead, much later, but also Shakespearean. As always, fine performance and recording quality as well as extremely informative notes. Dibdin really was a bit of a melodic genius and it's really good to hear such a substantial work here. I must confess to a slight bias, as I share a birthday with Garrick!
Thanks, but it's way too early for our forum.
