Glad I'm on the record as well, confirming that these late night/early morning postings are truly mine, and that the world knows how much I adore JMZ!!!!

Dear Joyce ~

I have been waiting for someone from el foro (http://www.unanocheenlaopera.com/viewtopic.php?t=9398&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=0) to see your wonderful posts and write, and now Edgar has. If you look at the above address you will see the theme they have started for your performances. I am so happy they will know you better thru your blog!

Un abrazo

I had the pleasure to meet Zapata last December during his Tancredi performances at Teatro Real...

He really is a lovely person and his anecdotes are very amusing...

He is a gteat singer too... It would be great you two share the stage for those performances at the MET...

And yes, he's on Armida with Fleming...

According to the info provided on the re-born Sieglinde's Diary blog Zapata is supposed to be on Armida with Renée Fleming on 12. April-15. May 2010 and on Il Barbiere di Siviglia on 14. Sept-12. Nov 2009 or/and 8. Feb-2. Mar 2010 with Joyce DiDonato and Maurizio Benini conducting.

Very funny !!! Looks like you are having a great time singing together ;) I've never had the chance to hear any of you two live..but I will be in London for Don Giovanni so I think my "problem" will be soon resolved (if I manage to see Jose Manuel Zapata anywhere else !!).

Hi

Thanks a lot for your answer, indeed. I was reading (and enjoying) your blog and suddenly I wondered... Am I really reading Joyce herself?... A blog, as you say, is an extra effort... a lot of work to be done, to upload pictures, to read the comments posted back... I mean, it's a hard job, ain't no doubt about it. As we sadly live in a world full of merchandising,

Joyce, I love Zapata! He's my favourite tenor nowadays, and as a person he's just as wonderful as you describe him, I can tell. This picture shows you two like you actually are, beautiful, lovely, shinny people. And you're also such great singers!! You were ment to like each other, and I really adore you both :-)

And now I have to say: what a wonderful performance you offered us last

Edgar - thank you for your compliments, and I'm sorry that you won't be able to attend the show. (But if I may be so bold, do try for a ticket in December - I'm hugely enthusiastic about the program, and we kick off the tour here in Madrid! Olè!) About my blog - every single word is, indeed, mine. I'm the only one who can post to it, I also read and post all the comments, all errors are mine, AND

Zapata got a great success in his debut at the MET. It is great that both of you are scheduled for a Barbiere at the MET on 2009-2010 season!
