We are staying a week and we have tickets for 4 operas -we're crazy-, but we could not miss Placido Domingo, Angela Gheorghiu, Samuel Ramey... All of them in 5 days!!!<BR/>Well, it's a pitty we won't see Levine conducting, but you can't have it all, can you?<BR/>Best regards!Pablo Ordáshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05053645850350189150noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4984873659848293247.post-48749800660318504042009-02-03T20:40:00.000-06:002009-02-03T20:40:00.000-06:00It is this existence in the moment that does make ...It is this existence in the moment that does make us love it so.Dr.Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02298893523780056481noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4984873659848293247.post-86635588893843772222009-02-02T15:30:00.000-06:002009-02-02T15:30:00.000-06:00The Don Giovanni telecast was April 1990 -- so if ...The <I>Don Giovanni</I> telecast was April 1990 -- so if that really was a wild guess out of the blue, well done!<BR/><BR/>And... "Ch'io mi scordi di te"! Against awe-inspiring competition, the greatest piece of music Mozart ever wrote -- if the performers get it right! I bet you and the Maestro and the orchestra did.
