    Time for a revival of Granville Bantock’s “The Seal Woman”?

  • Neil McGowan says:

    Dvorak’s Rusalka, perhaps? R Strauss’s opera Die Àgyptische Helena requires a singing seashell.

  • Halldor says:

    Franz Schmidt: The Book with Seven Seals.
    This one will run and run…

  • Francois says:

    Sealome?

  • Martin Anderson says:

    To be accurate, it ought to be La Furseal del Destino.
