Assad sympathizers hack BBC Twitter account
Story Topics
LONDON (AP) - The BBC came under attack from hackers sympathetic to Syrian President Bashar Assad on Thursday and warned its staff about attempts to compromise the broadcaster's email network.
Shortly after Assad supporters hijacked several BBC Twitter accounts to post messages that were by turns political, anti-Semitic and comical, the broadcaster said that "phishing" links _ typically fake emails aimed at stealing information _ are being sent around the BBC.
"If you receive these emails it is very important that you do not click on the link," the BBC said in an email to staff that was obtained by the Associated Press.
It was not immediately clear if the Twitter hacks and phishing emails were related.
The BBC's email to staff said the "phishing" emails contained what appeared to be links to The Guardian newspaper or Human Rights Watch online and bring users to a fake webmail portal.
"It is very important that you do not enter your details into this page," the BBC email said, adding that the company has shut down non-authenticated webmail.
The BBC confirmed it was investigating phishing emails, saying in a statement it has taken steps to ensure employees don't "fall victim."
It also said in a separate statement that Twitter account which earlier had been hacked were "back under our control" and that all of the inappropriate tweets had been deleted.
"We apologize to our audiences that this unacceptable material appeared under the BBC's name," it said.
The hackers targeting the Twitter accounts identified themselves as members of the Syrian Electronic Army, a group that has carried out a string of web attacks against targets such as Al-Jazeera, which it sees as sympathetic to Syria's rebels.
The BBC Weather, BBC Arabic and BBC Radio Ulster accounts appear to have been the targets.
Among the messages posted on the BBC Weather Twitter account _ which has approximately 59,600 followers _ were "Long Live Syria Al-Assad" and "Saudi weather station down due to head-on collision with camel."
A further message claimed Turkish leader Recep Tayyip Erdogan ordered terrorists to launch chemical weapons at civilian areas in North Syria. The hackers posted about 10 messages before signing off.
"Sorry about that, we were hacked. Normal service resumes," the account later posted after the offending tweets were deleted.
The BBC Arabic service account also bore the hallmarks of the hackers, with one message proclaiming "Syrian Electronic Army Was Here." Another tweet linked to a YouTube video purporting to show Syrian rebels killing civilians.
After carrying a pro-Assad post, the Twitter page for BBC Radio Ulster later posted a message saying "apologies to all our followers our account was hacked today."
Assad sympathizers in the past also have hacked the Reuters blogging platform and disseminated fake stories about Syria's rebel movement.

Re: Has Adam Dunn's performance been beaten to death yet?
Adam's head seems to be elsewhere at times in some games this season, otherwise he's just in a slump.
I dunno, I KNOW he'll be ok and work out of this rut he's in.
And yes i agree, there is WAY TO MUCH player bashing here, kills me when peeps talk about "so n so shouldnt bat here cause......." or "so n so shoulnt start because........"
Its great to have an opinion, but we all cheer for the SAME team, to do the SAME thing.. and thats WIN!!!!!!!!!!
No matter who we field that day, no matter who we Start on the mound, no matter WHO comes in to PH late in a game we all want the SAME result, from whatever player it is. TO WIN!!!!
I say cheer on that player, lets here WHY he should be batting 4th, or why he should be starting today. I'm sure theres a reason for it all or Narron wouldnt write em in that way
Proud Member of "The Bengals Lair"
Somebody's gotta win and somebody's gotta lose and I believe in letting the other guy lose.

100mbps Wireless Hub on its way
Y-E Data Inc. is getting ready to release a new wireless hub, a device which lets you use virtually any USB peripheral wirelessly. Equipped with 4 ports, the Ultra Wideband Wireless Hub can supposedly achieve data throughput rates of 100mbps at a distance of 10 meters, giving it plenty of bandwidth for the majority of USB devices. The idea is to let certain home or home office devices, like printers, scanners, cameras, controllers, et cetera, to be used further away from the PC and not be restricted to the immediate desk area. It sounds neat, for sure. Likely it will be unable to power devices via the wireless USB modules, so you're looking at it only being useful if the device has batteries or plugs in. Don't worry about it interfering with other wireless devices you have, as it operates in the 4.2 to 4.7GHz range, which lies outside 802.11a/b/g frequencies. It'll first appear in Japan this October.

Erich Gamma Has Joined the Microsoft Visual Studio Team
Erich Gamma, one of the four co-authors of Design Patterns, known as GoF (Gang of Four), has joined Microsoft Visual Studio team.
Gamma has joined Microsoft as a Distinguished Engineer and will work on Visual Studio, according to Jason Zander, Corporate VP for Visual Studio. Nothing is said about what projects he will work on or why he left IBM, only that he will continue to work out of Zurich, Switzerland, where Microsoft will create a lab to be led by him.
Gamma became famous after Design Patterns – Elements of Reusable Object-Oriented Software, the book he co-authored along with Richard Helm, Ralph Johnson and John Vlissides, was published and was embraced by the software community as a guide for object-oriented software development. He used to be a Distinguished Engineer for Rational Software from 1998, then for IBM after they acquired Rational.
Gamma is also known for JUnit, the unit testing framework he developed with Kent Beck, for his contribution to the Eclipse platform as one of the leads, head of Eclipse Java Development Tools project, and several technical key roles for IBM/Rational Jazz, Team Concert and Collaborative Lifecycle Management.
Gamma is certainly a valuable asset for the Visual Studio team, given his long experience with Eclipse and general technical expertise.

Advertising firms are targeting Thailand's tech-savvy consumers.
- Published: 12 Dec 2012 at 00.00
- Newspaper section: Business
International firms are tapping into Thailand's emerging mobile advertising market, propelled by the proliferation of smartphones and tablets plus high-speed wireless broadband networks.
Mobile video and real-time bidding (RTB) advertising looks set to become the upcoming trend next year, enabling advertisers to tailor their bids on an impression-by-impression basis when competing for the in-stream video ad inventory made available through SpotXchange's auction-based marketplace.
Supachai Parchariyanon, managing director of McFiva, a leading local digital media agency, said video advertising via mobile phones and the internet was growing in popularity, thanks to the exponential increase in smart devices.

UFOs = TIME TRAVELERS

Whatever happened, happened.
Let's say this is our first perspective/experience of the present and the future REALLY hasn't happened. Somewhere along the way someone does invent time travel. Then they use it to go back in time(not from our perspective). Now we create new realities by going back and the loop goes on forever. But it still isn't from our perspective. Now let's bring the concept of reincarnation to the table. Let's say we get born in to the past which is now the new perspective of the present we had last time.(obviously). And BAM we see flying saucers from the future in our lifetimes. So the fact the we are viewing UFO's from future(or past) has happened only once, but it has an endless ripple effect just not from our perspective of our current experience. Meaning we can born endlessly into the past and experience the same ripple effects.. But the memory loss before incarnation keeps the illusion on that we are always experiencing it once. Alright now I got just mindfucked by myself..
You got to wonder.. Since time isn't linear.. Is everything that happens, meant to happen eventually. That erases the whole concept of chance. Everything would be written to stone so to speak.
Alright I'm not even sure if anything that i just wrote made sense. Just woke up.
its written in stone but it was ALSO decided in that moment

LHERMITTE 3,193,825 ATMOSPHERIC MOTION NON-COHERENT PULSE DOPPLER SYSTEM Filed March 5, 1963 3 Sheets-Sheet 5 United States Patent C) 3,193,325 ATMSPHERIC MTEGN NQN-CHERENT PULSE DDPPLER YSEM Roger M. Lhermitte, Sudbury, Mass., assigner to the United States of America as represented by the Secretary et the Air Force Fiied Mar. 5, 1963, Ser. No.. 263,682 i2 Ciainis. (Cl. 343-9) (Granted under Title 35, US. Code (i952), sec. 266) The invention described herein may be manufactured and used by or for the United States Government for governmental purposes without payment to me of any royalty thereon. This invention relates to the measurement of horizontal motion in the atmosphere by means 'of pulse Doppler radar and more particularly by means ot non-coherent pulse Doppler radar. A copending application entitled, Atmospheric Motion Coherent Pulse Doppler System, tiled in the US. Patent Oiiice on even date herewith, and bearing Serial No. 263,081, describes the many advantages that pulsed Doppler radar has in determining atmospheric motion over previous systems. That system is summarized brieiy in the following paragraphs. A radar situated upon the ground sends out pulses of energy. Echoes from droplets of moisture in the atmosphere return to the antenna that radiated the energy initially. Due to radial motion of the droplets with respect to the antenna a phase shift in the echo signal with respect to a coherent signal generated within the radar is measured. This signal is analyzed for frequency content and displayed. A complete sweep of 360 (a complet-e revolution of the antenna) is displayed. rl`he signal is gated and only motion -of droplets contained within a phantom ring in space concentric with the radar and at a preselected altitude is shown. Upon analysis, it can be shown that the display is made up of two distinct parts. One part is a sinusoidal Variation and is the direct result of the force of wind. The other part is a constant value and is due to the vertical fall of the rain drops. The radial velocity toward the radar is therefore made up of a horizontal component due to wind and a vertical component due to rain. The summation of the two curves that make up the display gives a curve that has two nulls and two maxima. l These maxima have dissimilar Values which is a measure t wind velocity. The principles embodied in that invention are again exploited in the present invention but by diderent means. The present invention does not require the use of coherent radar. Coherent radar systems are more costly and have inherent limitations. Stability of the coherent signal is very important and sensitivity must be sacrificed to maintain that stability. Non-coherent radar on the other hand is much less costly and stability becomes relatively unimportant. Sensitivity therefore can be greatly increased. Attending an increase in sensitivity will ultimately be an ability to determine atmospheric motion from discontinuities in humidity and temperature between various layers or the atmosphere as opposed to the present ability to determine such motion from chaff clouds, rain, or snow. An object of this invention is to provide a more sensitive system for determining atmospheric motion. Another object of the invention is to provide radar means having dual beam antennas. Another object lof this invention is to provide method l ICC and means for mixing echo signals from the atmosphere to obtain information regarding atmospheric motion. Another object of this invention is to provide method and means for demodulation Doppler echo signals from atmosphere to obtain information regarding atmospheric motion. Another object of this invention is to provide a method of determining atmospheric motion from simple and inexpensive radar equipment. Further objects of this invention will be more fully understood from the following detailed description when taken into consideration with reference to the accompanyin g drawings, wherein: FG. l shows a radar with dual antennas radiating and receiving echoes from the atmosphere. FIG. 2 shows a sectional view of FlG. l illustrating the angular relationship of the dual beams with the wind. FIG. 3 is ablock diagram of one embodiment of this invention. FlG. 4 is a block diagram of a second embodiment of this invention. FG. 5 shows a display in Cartesian coordinates of wind velocity with respect to azimuth angle of the antennas. FIG. 6 shows the same pattern as above, but in polar coordinates. FIG. 7 shows a means for determining wind velocity from the display above in FIG. 6. FiG. 8, the spectrum of frequency returns with respect to the transmitted signals from the atmosphere. FIG. 9, the spectrum of frequencies as produced by the square law detector. Referring to FIG. 1, radar 16 situated upon the ground transmits pulses of energy in two different directions simultaneously by means of dual antenna i3. Echoes from droplets of moisture within a preselected sector of space such as 20 and 21 return to radar 16. As an'- tennas 1S rotate through one complete sweep of 360 a continuous series of pulses and their consequent echoes are generated and received by radar 16 such that droplets contained within phantom ring 19 produce a fairly continuous signal at radar 16. Radar beams from both antennas are at preselected elevation angle m15. With rotation of the antenna these beams form similar angular relationship 1328 with wind direction li7. As will be explained more fully in subsequent paragraphs conning the beam to a constant angle of elevation @l5 and gating the return echoes such that only signals from a given range are utilized then motion at an altitude related to that range and that elevation angle is considered. Furthermore, the motion ot discrete segments of phantom ring 19 are also related to azimuth angle ,828. It can be shown that the Doppler shift frequency of return echoes is related to the velocity of particles within the atmosphere and expressed by the formula wherein f is the Doppler shift frequency, v the velocity ot a particle with respect to the radar, and 7i is the wavelength of the radar signal. Vectors ld and il represent motion of particles within the respective preselected volume of atmosphere 2d and 2l. It is seen that these vectors are not the same although made up of identical vectors 12 and 13. Vector ft2 is due to wind acting on the moisture droplets. Vector 13 is due to the vertical fall of the moisture particles. The preceding is predicated upon the assumption that the wind velocity and Vertical fall are approximately uniform which is the usual case. It is seen that vertical fall 13 gives a radical compo- D nent to both radar echoes equal to Vf sin a; wherein, Vf equals vertical fall velocity and a equals the angle of elevation of the beams. Additionally it is seen that horizontal motion of particles within cube 21 will impart a radical component to radical vector V equal to Vh cos a cos wherein, Vh is the horizontal motion of particles within the given cube and a is the elevation angle 15, is the azimuth angle 28 of the beam. On the other hand, it is seen that horizontal motion of particles within cube impart a radial component to radial vector 14 equal to -Vh cos a cos Up to this point we have been considering the velocity of particles within a given cube in atmosphere as having the same velocity. In practice this is not found. A spectrum of return echoes is found indicating that the particles have differing velocities grouped about some central value. This is due in large measure to the fact that a given cube will have a variety of different size particles. The vertical fall speed for rain will vary from 4 to 6 meters per second and for snow will vary from l to 2 meters per second. This spectrum presents no immediate problem and will be reviewed later in connection with other matters. Having received two radar echoes from the atmosphere, they are combined in a Y waveguide junction and applied to radar receiver 31, FIG. 3. Output of receiver 31 is fed to LF. amplifier 32 and in turn to detector 33. Detector 33 is a square law detector. Square law detector 33 reproduces the square of the envelope of the combined radar return signals. It can be demonstrated mathematically that this output is related to the motion of particles within the atmosphere. The output will have two distinct parts both readily distinguishable from one another. The first portion ultimately porduces curve 51, FIG. 5, while the second portion produces curve 52. Output of detector 33 is applied to gating amplifier 34. Gating circuit 35 gates signals applied to gating amplifier 35 such that only signals corresponding to a prescribed range R are permitted to pass. Bearing in mind, angle of elevation a was held constant, then signals corresponding to an altitude equal to the product of the range and the sin of the angle alpha pass. Expressed by the formula A=R sin a; wherein, A equals altitude, R equals range, or equals the angle of elevation. These gated signals are then fed to boxcar 36. Boxcar 36 stretches signals applied to it and its output is then analyzed for frequency content in frequency analyzer 37 and applied to display 38. The operation of these latter components are more fully discussed in the previously alluded to copending application concerned with a vcoherent radar system of measuring atmospheric motion. However, boxcar 37, well known in the art, produces rectangular stepped waveforms having a primary frequency corresponding to the Doppler shift frequency and an amplitude proportional to the amplitude of the echo at this frequency. Frequency analyzer 37 can be a parallel filter type similar to one called Rayspan produced by the Raytheon Manufacturing Cornpany, or a panoramic or coherent memory filter type. The output of frequency analyzer 37 is displayed on display 38 with respect to azimuth signals 39 generated at the antenna pedestal. The amplitude of the applied analyzed signal controls the intensity of the display, its frequency determines the vertical position of the trace. The azimuth signal controls the horizontal poistion of the trace. Display 38 can be an oscilloscope, an X-Y plotter or a polar coordinate plotter. FIG. 5 shows a display that can he expected from the above processed signals. As pointed out earlier, two curves will be presented. The first is merely straight curve 52 and the second cosinusoidal curve 5I. The central value of the spectrum as presented in 51 is given Vg sin aVh cos ot cos ,8 while, spectrum S2 is determined by Vf sin or-l-Vh cos or cos When applied to the square law detector, the output as shown in HG. 9 will appear. Spectrum 91 will correspend to curve 52 and spectrum JZ will correspond to curve Sil. The width of spectrum 92 will be related to the widths of spectrums 81 and 82. The central value of spectrum 92 is determined by ZV1, cos a cos @wing to curve 52, zero points on curve 51 will be difcult to distinguish. This difficulty is eliminated by use of a polar coordinate display as shown in FIG. 6. Spot dl will correspond to curve S1. Curve 62 will correspond to curve 52. Angle p28 is 'the azimuth angle. Radius of the circle 62 will determine horizontal velocity. A transparent plate has circles 71, 72, 73, 74 corresponding to different values of velocity etched on it, if caused to rotate at the azimuth speed in front of the screen, a rapid determination of wind velocity by cornparison can be made. A second embodiment is shown in FIG. 4. The pulsed radar energy is divided up and transmitted via two separate antennas 4l and 42. Return echoes are relayed through the receiver' to separate amplifiers by way of special junctions 43 and d4 respectively. Local oscillator 42 feeds into both junctions preserving the autocoherence contained within the echoes as previously described. The signals are amplified in LF. amplifiers 46 and 47 respectively. The output of these amplifiers are then demodulated together in demodulator 48. The output of this circuit is proportioned to the two applied signals and more properly like the coherent type signal described in the earlier copending application than in the previous cmbodiment. Phase demodulator 48 is preferably a true linear product device although an ordinary KF. mixer will accomplish the desired result. The signal is then often treated similarly to that which is described in the above described embodiment when applied to the gating amplifier. Throughout the above discussion, the antennas were oriented apart. It is entirely possible to orient them at any fixed angle apart, 180 being a special case.

Eugene Onegin at the Royal Opera House
Kasper Holten's directorial debut in the Royal Opera House begins with silence.
Los Angeles Opera's new production of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart's The Magic Flute opened on November 23, 2013. Brought here from the Komische Oper in Berlin where it premiered last year, the production is a multimedia rendition in the style of the British theater group 1927.
As part of this year's tribute to Benjamin Britten the Chicago Symphony Orchestra, Chorus, and soloists recently gave several performances of the composer's War Requiem.
In its ongoing celebration of Verdi's centennial year, the Los Angeles Opera offered a new production of Falstaff, the composer's last and most brilliant opera — brilliant in every scintillating, sparkling sense of the word.
Poor Weber: opera companies, especially in England, do him anything but proud.
Acis and Galatea was one of Handel's most popular works, frequently revived in his life time and beyond.
German tenor Werner Güra, who has made a speciality of the German lieder repertoire, opened this recital at the Wigmore Hall with Beethoven's An Die Ferne Geliebte, the composer's only song cycle and the first significant example of the form.
It's been renamed "The Gershwins' Porgy and Bess," it hails itself as "The American Musical" and further qualifies itself as "The Porgy and Bess for the Twenty-First Century."
Richard Wagner wrote: "The voyage through the Norwegian reefs made a wonderful impression on my imagination; the legend of the Flying Dutchman, which the sailors verified, took on a distinctive, strange coloring that only my sea adventures could have given it."
'If she is adulterous, why is she praised? If chaste, why was she put to death?'
On Remembrance Sunday, Semyon Bychkov conducted Benjamin Britten's War Requiem at the Royal Albert Hall with Roderick Williams, Allan Clayton, Sabrina Cvilak, the BBC Symphony Orchestra, the BBC Symphony Chorus, Crouch End Festival Chorus and choristers of Westminster Abbey.
The mantle of tenor Peter Pears' legacy hung heavily over his immediate 'successors', as they performed music that had been composed by Benjamin Britten for the man to whom he avowed, 'I write every note with your heavenly voice in my head'.
One year since the launch of their project to create a contemporary book of Italians madrigals, vocal ensemble Exaudi returned to the Wigmore Hall to present an intermingling of old and new madrigals which was typically inventive, virtuosic and compelling.
Mozart's The Magic Flute at the Coliseum could give the ENO a welcome boost.
Lyric Opera of Chicago's current new production of Giacomo Puccini's Madama Butterfly, an effort shared with Houston Grand Opera and the Grand Théâtre de Genève, tends to emphasize emotional involvements against a backdrop of spare sets.
Dmitri Shostakovich's opera, The Nose, based on Gogol's short story of the same name, was a smash hit for the Metropolitan Opera company in 2010 and once again, this season.
There might not be much 'Serenissima' about Yoshi Oida's 2007 production of Death in Venice — it's more Japanese minimalism than Venetian splendour — but there is still plenty to admire, as this excellent revival by Opera North as part of its centennial celebration, Festival of Britten, underlines.
With an absorbing production of Peter Grimes and a freshly spontaneous La bohème, Canadian Opera Company has set the bar very high indeed for its current season.
Whatever you think of some of the Metropolitan Opera's recent productions, you cannot fault the Gelb administration for fearing to take risks.
The lustreless white tiles of the laboratory which forms the set of Keith Warner's pitiless staging of Alban Berg's Wozzeck offer little respite — cold, hard, rigid and severe, they are a material embodiment of the bleakness and barrenness of the tragic events which will be played out within the workshop walls (sets by Stefanos Lazaridis).
At this year's Wexford Festival — the 62nd operatic gathering in this small south-eastern Irish town - the trio of operas on show present many a wretched battle between duty and desire.
Kasper Holten's directorial debut in the Royal Opera House begins with silence.
A mature Tatyana dashes about the stage desperately seeking a letter, her grandiose white gown allowing glimpses of a simple scarlet under-dress: a sartorial metaphor for the cold repression of Tatyana's adulthood which chills but can never entirely extinguish the passionate fire of her adolescent self.
Later we learn that we have witnessed an imagined 'in-between episode', interjected between the opera's final two scenes. Onegin has re-encountered Tatyana, now Princess Gremin, and is filled with remorse and regret for his rejection of her love many years before. He has sent her a letter declaring his devotion, and it is this avowal which Tatyana frantically seeks in the pre-overture mime.
In these opening moments, we are introduced to Holten's central conceit: the simultaneity of past and present, which has the advantage of emphasising that actions from the past can be lamented but never altered, and the disadvantage that the tension and anticipation is lessened — for all is known, and fulfilment and denial exists alongside yearning. When the music of the overture begins, the fore-shadowing motifs of Tchaikovsky's score are oddly turned to reminiscence — for we have glimpsed the outcome. What should be revealed by the musical journey through the score has already been visually presented.
The elision of past and present is sustained throughout. The older Tatyana and Onegin are partnered by dancer-doubles representing their younger selves (Vigdis Hentze Olsen and Thom Rackett respectively). The action is therefore experienced as flashback, viewed through the psyches of the protagonists who are forced to witness and re-live their former torments. But, the young doubles are not just visual externalisations of the characters' inner selves: they actually interact with their older counterparts. Sometimes this is a neat device, actualising internal consciousness, but too often it is a distraction.
In the letter scene, naturalistic acting from the real Tatyana is accompanied by the exaggerated gestures of extreme emotional distress relayed by the younger double who, following Onegin's words of rejection, agitatedly climbs one of the three fixed columns which dominate the stage, where she rests aloft, hunched in a cupboard, throughout the ensuing party scene. Tatyana's confusion and subsequent devastation, depicted with such lyrical expression by Tchaikovsky, are thus rendered blindingly obvious; but as her emotions are so powerfully conveyed through score and voice, they need no such visual articulation. Indeed, the latter detracts from the potential potency of the vocal expression, which is a real shame as Krassimira Stoyanova is admirably equipped to communicate Tatyana's mental disarray. In the event, the young woman's anxiety is diluted — remembered and reflected on rather than immediately felt — and distanced: for the silent mime places a barrier between Tatyana and the audience to whom she unfolds her soul.
Moreover, Holten's device often presents us with certainty and action when the libretto and score intimate hope and nebulousness. Thus, Tatyana's dreams of an encounter with Onegin are visually realised when the young dancer wraps herself around Onegin's double, literalising a fantasy that should remain merely imagined. In this way, there is often a disjuncture between the aural and visual narratives; the music remains unresolved, the stage-scene provides resolution.
Krassimira Stoyanova as Tatyana
Similarly in the in duel scene, watched helplessly by the older Onegin who paces broodily, it is the young double who commits the murderous act before passing the gun to his older self — perhaps suggesting the continuity and inescapability of guilt. In the silence at the end of the scene, in an overly melodramatic gesture, Simon Keenlyside's Onegin holds the pistol to his own head before the festive fanfares of the ball interrupt and dispel his suicidal intentions. Sometimes it feels as if there are too many layers: action, reflection, immediacy, retrospection. During Lensky's aria, sung with wistful tenderness by Slovakian tenor Pavol Breslik, the older Onegin watches his former friend's anguish and reaches out to console him, inferring the fundamental love that exists between the two men, but also implying reconciliation when the painful reality is that there is none.
Finally, during the interlude before the final scene a dance of temptation and denial reveals the passing of time, as Onegin is taunted by sylphs in grey silk, who fly past like shadows, ever eluding his grasp. We are presumably meant to apprehend that Onegin is the victim of his own sexual dalliances, recognising too late his own superficiality and what he has lost. But, the scene is crudely unsubtle and distracts from the tense anticipation which is building in the orchestral fabric.
Frequently the characters, and audience, are endowed with too much knowledge. During the party scene, twisting shadows on the backdrop reveal an encounter between Olga and Onegin. From the first this Olga is depicted as discontented and frustrated; Russian mezzo Elena Maximova produces some unusually rich and powerful chest tones, but Olga's commitment to Lensky half-hearted in contrast with his earnest, simple devotion. Lensky is thus rendered one-dimensional: his insecurities are shown to be founded in fact. He is not insecure but betrayed; not a troubled, over-sensitive young man but a deceived dupe. Holten has a surprise in store for us at the close too, when Prince Gremlin — sung with striking poise and sincerity by Peter Rose — arrives during the final meeting of Onegin and Tatyana to witness his wife's fraught denial of Onegin's advances: it is therefore not clear what motivates her refusal of his love — her own conscience or her husband's authority.
My main objection, then, is that Holten intellectualises and externalises something that is essentially emotional and instinctive. This may explain why there seemed to be little passion or genuine human feeling, especially in the opening scenes: the characters are remembering a drama rather than living it. The retrospective gaze describes rather than enacts, and we experience the drama at one remove, rather than sharing the lived emotions.
Holten presents us with a combination of realism and psycho-drama, and this duality is reflected in Mia Stensgaard's sets, the lighting design of Wolfgang Göbbel and Katrina Lindsay's costumes. The back- and fore-stage are divided by three imposing columns which stride the stage; neatly folding doors and drapes enclose and confine the characters, then open to reveal stunning vistas of the Russian landscape. Leo Warner's video designs project modernist vistas behind the naturalistic nineteenth-century interiors. The hazy Turner-esque reds and ochres of the Russian spring sharpen to piercing crimsons in the duel scene: blood and passion are writ large, and contrast with the cold blues of the fore-stage which intimate the emotional repression of the protagonists.
Costumes similarly oppose vibrancy with monotony. There are simple splashes of colour for the protagonists — glossy red, then white concealing the former scarlet, for Tatyana; a shabby suit of cobalt blue for Eugene; pale peppermint green for Olga; and steely dark grey for Lensky — which are sharply juxtaposed with the distinctly characterless black of the peasant chorus.
I fear that by concentrating thus far on a single element of Holten's conception, I may have misrepresented my actual experience in the theatre; for, although the dual time scheme dominates the production, it does not detract from the beauty of the singing and the consistently high musical standards.
Bulgarian soprano Krassimira Stoyanova has the skill, artistry and warm depths of tone to convince as Tatyana — even if she, like her Onegin, is rather advanced of years for the role. She combines smooth lyricism and technical assurance with dramatic vulnerability; but the visual shenanigans do divert our attention from her vocal revelations, and her voice does not quite have sufficient distinctiveness to overcome this.
Simon Keenlyside sings with a characteristically beautiful sense of phrasing and form, but he is not a natural fit for the role of Onegin. This Onegin is young and nonchalant rather than repressed and brooding; and Keenlyside's engagement with the emotional depths of the role is, surprisingly, at times superficial.
Pavol Breslik is an accomplished and moving Lensky, in spite of Holten's diminishing of the role's dramatic complexity and Breslik's occasionally understated projection. He deserved the warm applause he garnered on this opening night; not least for his ability to lay still, without so much as a twitch, for the last 40 minutes of the opera. Having (inexplicably) dragged a spray of silvered brushwood behind him to the scene of his impending fatality, Breslik subsequently finds himself strewn amid the detritus of the protagonists' emotional weakness and moral failings — the broken branches, the tattered leaves from Tatyana's torn book — Lensky's bloodied corpse underlining the tragic consequences of Onegin's indifferent egoism.
In the minor roles, Kathleen Wilkinson and Jihoon Kim are competent as Filipyevna and Zaretsky respectively, but rather unengaging dramatically. Diana Montague (Madame Larina) and French tenor Christophe Mortagne (Monsieur Triquet) make much of their character roles.
In the pit, the musical lines are refreshingly clear and lucid, as conductor Robin Ticciati coaxes myriad woodwind colours and warm, if not heart-searing, string sound from his players. There is some lovely horn playing in the letter scene, singer and player finding both depth of feeling and a poignant pianissimo, conveying Tatyana's tragic mix of aching desire and fragile vulnerability. But, Ticciati's approach to the score feels too restrained and refined: it is precise and elegant, but the music does not drive the drama forward. One longs for a bit more sentimentality. The decision to divide the performance into two parts, rather than the customary three acts, does not help in this regard, for the delicate details which Ticciati reveals do not form the sufficiently strong emotional arc which is needed to support the lengthy first part which, at 100 minutes, feels an overly long haul.
The chorus are musically tidy but somewhat lacking in Russian bravura, their movements restricted by the limited strip of fore-stage. In scene 2 the peasant workers enter the house, stand stock still to sing their chorus and then leave, the audience distracted in any case by the projection of Tatyana's dream of Lensky which is enacted above them. The polonaise is a limp, crowded affair as Holten chooses to ignore the wonderful opportunity for a colourful set-piece provided by this master of the ballet score.
Overall then this is an interesting, sometimes intriguing, production; there is much superb singing, but the concept blunts the musical and dramatic clarity, and dilutes the edge of the emotional impact.
