Proving once again that all the cool kids hang out in the footnotes, scroll waaaaay down the list, and you'll find Boston Early Music Festival has won the Grammy for Best Opera Recording, in a very tough field, for its Charpentier double bill.
Also, can we just point out that the most canonical work in the list this year is Elektra?

sundry items
arte liveweb has Bayreuth's RW 200 concert with Eva Maria Westbroek, Johan Botha, Kwangchul Youn, and the Bayreuth orchestra all dressed up in their winter gig clothes, under the direction of Christian Thielemann.
Paul O'Dette discusses his new album of lute tunes of Francesco da Milano on the Gramophone Mag podcast. I particularly like the tidbit of information he imparts about period payscale for Brilliant Lutenists, and think we would do well to emulate.
And speaking of, it's two weeks to Boston Early Music Festival, a whole week of staged opera, semi-staged opera, official concerts, fringe concerts, master classes, lec-dems, petting zoo, and guerrilla sidewalk period bagpiping. If you've dreamed of dropping a fiver in a busker's theorbo case, there may be no better opportunity.
