I second the thanks.  I had no idea these performances were available online.

I think they're also available online for a week or so (maybe a month) after the festival finishes.  The Verbier concerts are free for the moment - you just have to register with Medici.

The independent gave Verbier a good review:

I watched the Bryn Terfel Lieder recital live on line.  So far it's my favourite.
