Hey all.  In the light of the discussion on Britten's sexuality as
portrayed in his music, I thought I'd mention that I wrote a short article,
for those who are fairly new to his operatic music, dealing with general
and stylistic concerns in those works.  For anyone interested in taking a
look, the URL is http://www.dreamwater.com/oxborough/music/britten.html

Cheers,
Damian.
