A Very Spectrum Christmas (Part 4), by Thomas A. Christie.

Excerpts from A Very Spectrum Christmas (Part 4), by Thomas A. Christie. In this section: "The Official Father Christmas Game" by Alternative Software (1989). Throughout the 1980s, thousands of British children were lucky enough to discover a Sinclair ZX Spectrum under their Christmas trees and soon found their eyes opened to a virtual world of wonder. But Santa Claus did more than deliver computers — sometimes he appeared on them, too. This book delves into the Spectrum’s extraordinary pantheon of seasonal games: the good, the bad, the surprising, the unabashedly surreal and the occasionally rather tenuous. "A Very Spectrum Christmas" is Copyright ©2021 Thomas A. Christie, all rights reserved, and is published by Extremis Publishing Ltd. This title is available as a physical book from www.extremispublishing.com and all good online retailers and independent booksellers worldwide.

Jacques Offenbach - 'Barcarolle' from The Tales of Hoffman

Stunning operatic piece by Jacques Offenbach 'Barcarolle' from The Tales of Hoffman.  The beautiful voices are, Julia Pietrusewica - Soprano and Katarzyna Radon - Mezzo Soprano, singing with the Symphony Orchestra of the Ryszard Bukowski Secondary Music School, in the Polish Nationwide Music Schools' Symphonic Orchestras Competition, conducted by Artur Wrobel.  Also, best use of a Triangle - I hope they won!?#Offenbach #barcarolle #talesofhoffman #opera #choral #symphonyorchestra #poland #polish #soprano #juliapietrusewica #mezzosoprano #katarzynaradon #conductor #arturwrobel #musicschool #competition #jeeni #music #musicians #operasingers #classicalmusic #classicalcomposers #bestuseofatriangle #musicvideo #musicfest #community #talent #unsigned #creatives #fans #superfans
