Sometimes the cabin's gloomy and the table's bare

"Wall to Wall Opera," a 13 hour orgy of things operatic, inhabits Symphony Space beginning at 11 a.m. on Saturday. Among the festivities is a master class in bel canto interpretation by Renata Scotto, but the moment La Cieca most eagerly awaits will arrive courtesy of Encompass Opera Theatre. We are promised a performance of "The Silver Aria" from the haunting opera by John LaTouche and Douglas Moore, The Ballad of Baby Joe.

Why is the silver aria, whole a beautiful peice, of course, the highlight of the evening La Cieca over your own personal diva's masterclass?

I am on the verge of a heart attack!!
Almost all of the Mariella Devia videos have been suspended on YouTube because YouTube has suspended the account of the individual who posted so many of them: Loganfacincy26. I am short of breath and think I am going to faint! What are we to do!?!?! Someone HELP!!!

Youtube also dropped the video of the recording of Caruso singing "Over There" from 1918. I am still wondering what the legal problems were with that one.

Hmmm..YouTube has removed a lot of videos, not just those of Loganfacincy26's. Late spring cleaning?
