roger woodward videos
on: February 03, 2005, 09:28:10 AM
I went for a holiday to sydney a few weeks ago, and while i was there i visited the conservatorium of music; on the shelfs there were TWO roger woodward videos, that are not listed anywhere, on amazon or ebay or even in cd shops. 

I can't remember their names, but i was wondering if anybody had them or knew of them or where to find them.  I would greatly appreciate the help.

Thanks

Summary "The Sydney Opera House tenth anniversary recital"...opening credits
 
and the only other 2 things that came up were sound recordings playing chopin and prokofiev, so i guess that's not what you want

but if you want to look it up yourself go to https://opac.library.usyd.edu.au/

one suggestion- it was recorded at the opera house, so maybe you could try asking them if they have a recording or where you can get one
