This is an old revision of this page, as edited by GuillaumeTell (talk | contribs) at 17:32, 25 May 2015 (Operas: Saw Donizetti's 'Poliuto' yesterday at Glyndebourne (rather an oddity); added it above to give me exactly 400 different operas just before my birthday tomorrow!). The present address (URL) is a permanent link to this revision, which may differ significantly from the current revision.

  • 15 December 2014 was the 9th anniversary of my first contributions to Wikipedia.

Short bio

I was born here (my parents lived here), moved to here (or thereabouts) at the age of 6 months, 6 months later to here, a year later to here, eighteen months after that to here, after another 6 months to here, where I started school at the age of 5, three years later to here and then to here, where I passed the eleven plus exam. In 1957, when the Suez Canal was impassible, I travelled on the SS Uganda via here, here, here, here, here to here, and thence to here (where I acquired my GCE Ordinary Level (United Kingdom) and my A-levels). Then a few months here, five years and a couple of degrees (this and that) here, where my tutor was this distinguished scholar and literary critic, a year each at here and here, where I collected another degree (the other) ... Then I had a nice rest - 30 years working as a librarian here, mostly on computer systems (anyone heard of Geac?) and administrative jobs. I took early retirement in 2001 and now live in central York.

Operas

My main leisure interest is opera - going to see it, listening to it, reading about it, writing or improving Wikipedia articles about it. So far, I've actually seen 400 different operas in live professional staged productions with orchestra, almost all of them in Great Britain and Ireland.

My Wikipedia username, for those who don't know, is the French version of the name of the legendary William Tell and the title-character of the opera by Gioachino Rossini. Coincidentally, the most recent (400th) opera that I've now at last seen on stage - in Birmingham (and somewhat cut) - was Guillaume Tell, sung in French.

Below are two lists of composers and their operas, all of which I have seen on various stages.
