Cheers FDL. Didn't think it was intentional, Yahoo Group is becoming a bit of a virus haven lately. Get lots of stuff coming to my inbox.

Thanks for the infot and understandable if it's true. The Time committment being in Libera alone is huge.

There is an international festival of boys choirs hosted by the Poznan boys choir 16 - 21 November 2010 and one of the choirs that will be there is Trinity Boys Choir.
So? Which school does Libera's current prime soloist attend? That's right, Stefan attends Trinity school and sings in their choir. Will we be without Stefan on the 19th???

Ryanair has an interesting pricing policy. When I checked the same flight 4 days ago it was priced for ~130 GBP
But no holidays this time- just for the concert !
Anyway- still happy
P.s. And I'm quite crazy as well- I really can't afford even 3 or 4 days this time, I dare just 24 hours !
Well, at least the important people will be there even if Stefan can't be bothered to show up (only joking ).
If I’ve got owt to say I says it, and if I’ve got owt to ask I asks it.

Yes, all the important people... you and Patrick. Interesting to know who they will pick as Stefan's understudy for when he can't be around to sing most of the solos...
Very interesting news about Stefan maybe not being there but sreuly Prizeman would be aware of stuff like this and to lose your main soloest seems a bit silly so i wont panick just yet.
Sorry Yorkie, but having now seen all of the venues, I'm sticking with Bristol as the best location to see Libera in action. Both cathedrals remind me too much of St. Louis and Riverside, my least favorite venues.

There were so many different leads on the different songs done this summer, that it seemed anyone could be replaced just by exchanging a few songs on the set list. While it would be a shame to miss out on the masterful job Stefan did on his leads, it would present an opportunity for others to increase their roles and that would be worth seeing.... it would also be an argument for attending more than one concert in the fall series.....

I must be mistaken as i thought Stefan still had about 8,9 solos during the concerts.
There were two songs he did unassisted. I think those would have to be scrapped if no one else was capable of stepping in on short notice. Other songs in which he had an important role would have to be modified for sure, but I figure they could still be performed well. Such is (or should be) the nature of a good group of singers and I have confidence in our current lineup.
I think the biggest loss to the show would be Stefan's ability to perform amidst the crowd should Libera wish to use that device in this concert. In all the concerts I have seen only Ed has done something similar, but Stefan definitely exceeded even that high standard this year - particularly in Fort Worth.

Thanks for the update. For me personally Stefan is now there best singer. I am sure in 2,3 years time he will go down as a great Libera soloest.

Yeah, at least one of the best .
Though all of them need support.
Hopefully we will see him on 19th Nov, too (just my selfish idea ). Anyway I woun`t complain if he chooses the other event. I suppose he is performing at least 4 concerts out of 5.
I have just booked a hotel for Bristol. I can cancel up to the day before if i change my mind but with Stefan maybe not doing London i have decided to hedge my bets.
