Upcoming UK Opera North LOVE LIFE radio broadcast

Thought I would make a separate thread about this, as there was some discussion about this broadcast in the Encores thread, but some people may not have heard about it. BBC Radio 3 will broadcast this production of LOVE LIFE on 22 February at 6pm, presumably London time (GMT). There will also be a cast recording at some stage.

The cast album from this production will be released on 3 October. Track samples are available here: https://www.prestomusic.com/classical/products/9786520--kurt-weill-love-life.

More likely the Opera North production had money to record,  & perhaps the BBC helped fund as well.  While quite likely the Encores production didn't have such funding in place.

Thanks for the link Fan123.  I've bookmarked it to order a physical copy.
