5:43pm Tuesday 15th May 2007

Even a granite statue would have succumbed to the irresistible temptation to get down from its plinth and dance to the infectious Congolese rumba of Dizzy Mandjeku and his band.
La Traviata, Royal Pavilion, Brighton
3:20pm Tuesday 8th May 2007
I have long been a fan of scaled-down opera - it makes the ticket price much cheaper than major opera houses and, although you lose the spectacle and the full orchestral sound, you are often repaid with bags of intensity.
