Having done my weekly glance at some videos in Bravo I have removed some posts from the channel that I don't believe are a good fit.
The channel description is;
"A channel dedicated to sifting the best from the opera house, concert hall or theatre.
Sifts can be performances, documentaries, interviews or anything else, mainly relating to opera, classical, dance and musical theatre."
I think it's ok for this to extend to videos that are influenced by these genres (hence the cartoons) and for jazz/blues to be included as they tend to be concert performances that, to me at least, feel like they fit in Bravo.
There's clearly a blurring here and I know I haven't caught everything but I don't think we should have newer genres or more esoteric musical fusions in the channel.
So please no rock or hiphop as these do have their own channels.
thanks!

If bravo only includes "the best from the opera house, concert hall or theatre" I think it should be renamed to something less confusing.

With some channels including Bravo, and we did come up with a few other ideas for the name that didn't feel as snappy, the name isn't always going to be as self-explanatory as say Comedy. So thank gawd for the channel description.
Kind of like "1sTube: The best clips of television".
"Bravo!: Best clips of opera, theater and concert"
I don't want to go trough all the channels descriptions when I sift.
The channel text name is now "Bravo! All things classical and more". I wanted to add more but it wouldn't let me, still that looks good to me.
I have removed quite a few videos that shouldn't be there and undoubtedly one or two in error but I hope not. I did enjoy the process and upvoted most of them.
And there's a nice new video on the right for visitors to the channel to view at http://bravo.videosift.com.
As my time is limited and I *must* go back to work I shall return to Bravo! land next week.
cheers!
