Chris Proctor picks up a 12-string, straps it on, and gets down to some serious teaching in this instructional program. The 12-string can be difficult to master, but fortunately these easy-to-follow instructions should leave potential players able to pick out a few rhythms and melodies. Proctor takes viewers through 12 complete songs during the program, making this a thoroughly comprehensive guide to the instrument.

Often eclipsed in the opera canon by Weber's masterpiece, DER FREISCHUTZ, EURYANTHE is a stunning, experimental work, highly representative of the composer's romantic nature. Inspired by a 13th Century legend, the story tells of a virtuous title character who is wrongly accused of betraying her lover. Entirely set to music and devoid of the Italianisms glimpsed in Weber's other works, the opera seeks to overcome the traditional opposition of spoken and sung parts, as well as recitative and closed numbers. Truly original and often breathtakingly beautiful, this quintessential romantic opera is presented here under the eminent direction of Pier Luigi Pizzi, and interpreted by a cast of specialists in German opera.DVD Features:Region 0Keep CaseFull Frame - 1.33Audio: Dolby Digital 5.1 DTS PCM Stereo

The comedic stylings of of drag-diva Ira Siff are displayed as the one and only Vera Galupe-Borszkh. Crossing gender barriers, Siff put on a command performance that perhaps even challenges the great. The aria Suicido is the main highlight as Siff uses props and dramatics to illustrate.DVD Features:Region (Unknown)Keep CaseSingle Side - Single LayerFull Frame - 1.33
