A chance for stage folks to say hello

by | 12:00 am | Mar 31, 2007

Leave it to La Cieca to offer added value to even so glittering a performance as Act Two of I Capuleti e i Montecchi starring Anna Netrebko, Daniela Barcelona and Joseph Calleja. Your doyenne makes her legitimate acting debut in a new episode of Apocryphal Opera Anecdote Theater in the demanding role of “Lady Capulet” in Romeo and Juliet. Unnatural Acts of Opera.

    La Cieca,
    Thanks for the Bellini Shakespeare. It’s been a long time since I’ve listened to anything from this opera, so it’s kind of a nice refresher. I especially like the YouTube clip you posted with Gruberova and Baltsa. Gruberova is less affected than I’m used to (which is great), and Baltsa is fantastic! A nice find. Thanks.
