A tall stage-set depicting a large room with medieval pictures, patterns and motifs on the upper parts of the walls. On the left, there is an alcove and two sets of doors. At the back is a tall screen and an elaborate curtained four-poster bed containing a man in sleeping garments and a nightcap. To the right is a tall wooden desk with a religious picture in a gothic frame, sideways-on to a short staircase leading up to a balcony door. Seven men (two of them tradesmen), three women and a child, all in medieval garments, are standing or sitting around the room listening to an important-looking man who is reading a document out loud.
From the new featured article, Gianni Schicchi: the relatives listen to the reading of the will of Buoso Donati (seen dead in bed)—a scene from the original Metropolitan Opera production in New York City of Puccini's last completed opera, composed 1917–18.


The Signpost asked reviewer Sven Manguard to do a round-up of the featured sound process in 2010. His report, and his choices of the highlights of the year, appear below in this week's "Features and admins".
