"A powerful traversal of life in the pandemic... he has a keen intellect that he applies with fluency and wit - all of this shines through in his writing." - Mark Valencia, Opera Magazine Stranded in London when the Coronavirus pandemic hit, Welsh opera singer Paul Carey Jones began chronicling the voyage of the classical music industry through the perils - and opportunities - of a global crisis. Based on his hit blog series 'Coronaclassical', this book is his lockdown story so far. "An addictively brilliant writer" - Support Action; "Something good to come out of lockdown." - John Suchet; "His view is alert and complex, evaluating developments with a searching but sceptical eye. There's no shortage of good ideas in his approach to a problem that has found operatic managements the world over wrong-footed, literally giving away the valuable assets of their recorded performances. A steadily rising Wotan, he explores Wagner's most complex character in further essays which also cover Tosca's death and other matters largely vocal and all worth encountering." - George Hall, BBC Music Magazine
