Re: Sir Harrison Birtwistle
I was invited by a friend to spend an evening at Covent Garden, where Birtwistle's Opera 'Gawain' was performed. To be honest it was the dreariest evening I think I have ever spent, I couldn't wait for it to be over. An evening of tortured screeching and moaning that left quite a number of the audience aghast and shellshocked.
