Radio Times Christmas Edition: Barber of Seville

Dec 13, 2012

Kevin Hauff found his recent commission really fun to do. The 2012 Christmas edition of the BBC Radio Times Magazine was launched this week and one of Kevin's illustrations was included in the Radio pages section.

The image was created for a performance of Rossini's The Barber of Seville by the Met in New York, to be broadcast by BBC Radio 3. Full details can be viewed on Kevin's Blog (click on link below).

From the Radio Times: "Tony Award-Winning Broadway Director Bartlett Sher scored a hit with his first opera-this Met production of Rossini's Barber of Seville. His Looney Tunes-inspired staging was to prove as sharp as barber Figaro's razor. Russian baritone Rodion Pogossov is the wily Mr Fix-it here and the hilarious pre-marital upheavals of Count Almaviva and his bride to be Rossina are explored with vocal freshness by tenor Alek Shrader and contralto Isabel Leonard."
