If any of your readers, Norman, share my admiration for Anne Schwanewilms in this role (and deep disappointment re Sunday’s Premier) then they may enjoy browsing a collection of my images from a simply elektrifying performance by Ms Schwanewilms as the Chrysothemis, at a dress rehearsal at the ROH, Covent Garden in 2008.
A never-to-be-forgotten assignment, and a rare opportunity too!
