The news has been anything but positive lately, so let's have something a little more lighthearted. I've probably done the Overture to "The Barber of Seville" before, possibly with its Bugs Bunny tie-in, but here it is straight, performed by the St Petersburg Philharmonic Orchestra and conducted by Yuri Temirkanov. It's one of Rossini's most charming pieces, and considering his lifetime output that's saying a lot.
