Edinburgh Grand Opera

My libretto for Frederico Ricco's 19th century opera La Prigione di Edimburgo has been sitting on my shelf for a very long time. I presumed this was another victim of the bookwraith but it seems Edinburgh's grand opera has rescued this 19th century masterpiece from oblivion. Based on what I believe to be Sir Walter Scott's finest novel, The Heart of Midlothian, this opera can be seen on Sunday, May 15th in Edinburgh. Wish I could be there.
