I've just discovered that Manu Katché, the drummer with the Jan Garbarek Group, is also one of the regular judges on France's version of Pop Idol. I'm amused.

I don't know what he's like as a reality TV judge ("feared", if you believe Wikipedia...) but he's certainly a damn good drummer...

I've just found some confirmation that the new John Adams opera Doctor Atomic arrives in London in Feb 2009.

A little closer to the here and now, the recent Philip Glass opera Waiting For The Barbarians is in London next June. Should make an effort to see that, although I'm not sure there's a weekend performance.
