Discovering Opera - Aida

25 May 2011 by Cristina

Aida by Giuseppe Verdi.

Aida is an opera in four acts by Giuseppe Verdi to an Italian libretto by Antonio Ghislanzoni, based on a scenario written by French Egyptologist Auguste Mariette. Aida was first performed at the Khedivial Opera House in Cairo on 24 December 1871, conducted by Giovanni Bottesini.

The production’s striking designs evoke a strange and distant culture – a society from long ago, ordered by ritual, obsessed with death, driven by war. How can the furtive love between a prisoner and one of her captors survive against such forces? The intensity and tragedy of the story inspired Verdi to some of his most haunting and famous music: the seductive slave dances, the triumphal march, the passion of ‘Celeste Aida’, the heart-rending finale.

The Cake Shop - 'Seems Good To Me'

13 May 2011 by John

The Deben Radio area has many people and businesses outstanding for their enterprise and creativity. In this series of interviews entitled ‘Seems Good To Me’ John Saul talks to people who are especially good at what they do.

The Cake Shop family-run business has been in Woodbridge since 1946. It has made everything from the plain 'national loaf' of those days to the sophisticated, popular 'Suffolk trencher' of today, described here by manager Simon as the nearest to an Anglo-Saxon loaf you can get. John talks to Simon and Peter, the owner of the Cake Shop, about the bread and cakes, and how the enterprise has survived and thrived. The shop in the Thoroughfare is open from 7 to 4.30, Monday to Friday, and on Saturdays to 3.30. It has an excellent website at www.cakeshopbakery.co.uk
