A tremendous new recording, made at a live performance at the Barbican, London, of Britten's Billy Budd. A very strong cast, with Bostridge as Starry Vere, means that it is a pleasure from beginning to end. I was there at the performance, and although it was a concert performance (rather than a staged one) it was completely draining in its emotional intensity. Makes you realise what a great composer Britten was.
