Ooh! Thanks!

You're welcome.

There's a beautiful rendition of "I know Him So Well" from CHESS in the second half, sung by John and Daniel Boys, who was one of the finalists in the BBC's Joseph program.

Yes - thanks Kec - I've enjoyed listening to this today. I also enjoyed I Know Him So Well and Barrowman's take on I Am What I Am though was disappointed with his Man of La Mancha, particularly since he says he wants to play the role. I also thought Daniel had a brave attempt at Gethsemene; if not as flexible in voice as some he acted it very well.

Jodie has improved vastly on Send In The Clowns which was one of her few low-points in the TV auditions. You should post this thread on the West End board where Jodie has lots of fans.

The revelation for me was the Welsh singer Shan Cothi who was unknown to me but who had a naturally lovely voice.

I was there for this fantastic concert-suffered through Boyzone on Friday, froze on Saturday for the Opera Gala (which was worth the cold) and saw the fantasic musicals evening on Sunday. A sweet thing that you wouldn't have got from the radio coverage John was crying during the national anthem at the end!

All in all well worth the long drive from Cardiff!

There are TV highlights on BBC1 Wales on Monday 1st Sept-not sure if Wales programmes are on Iplayer for those outside. Also for those who get S4C there are highlights from the opera and the Tan Y Draigg concert on Sunday at 8pm.

Unfortunately, the BBCI-Player only works for those within the UK. We Americans' can't access it.

Scripps, good point, I should have done so.
