We don't need no Louis XVI

For all that is, and ever will be Pink Floyd. One of my top two loves in existance is Pink Floyd, thus they get a special place in my electronic world. Please note that other music can be chatted about here, but only in relation to Pink Floyd.

Roger Waters, the self-styled "creative genius behind Pink Floyd", has completed his first opera. He began working on Ca Ira in the 1980s, and it was originally intended to be part of the 1989 celebrations of the French Revolution's bicentenary. Two sections, The Letter and La Bastille, were performed last year at a charity concert in New York. The three-act piece is expected to be released in French and English versions later this year, and Waters recently told Mojo magazine that he hopes "one of the big opera companies might include it in their repertoire". Waters is not the first member of Pink Floyd to dabble in the world of opera. Pink Floyd guitarist David Gilmour, performed an aria from Bizet's The Pearlfishers during his 2002 solo concerts at London's Royal Festival Hall.
