sugarmezzo, basically they (NYT) got it wrong twice, at least. the first correction was erroneous too. BH first wrote that zajick sang the norma duet with millo, then changed it to zajick sang the trovatore duet with the baritone. then, by the 3rd time, they got it right.
i find it funny they actually changed the article online, in addition to appending the correction note, because that way they whitewashed the first correction, in addition to the initial article.
We Brits love “Bushisms” such as misspoke and misidentify – Mr Holland must have been both deaf AND blind – or asleep (it happens to critics) – to misidentify Millo and Zajick singing Mira, o Norma, with Millo and Gaertner singing Mira, d’acerbe lagrime. I have never seen Mr Gaertner, so maybe he is easy to misidentify as Dolora Zajick. Is he a good singer? I’m listening to Corelli’s studio recording of Andrea Chenier right now and, goodness me, what fine singers Antonietta Stella and Mario Sereni were – they would be megastars today in the rep they sang.
Regina delle Fate – I pee my pants everytime I play that CD. You are totally on target with Stella and Sereni
