    Cieca:

    You wrote way too much to respond to; but, one point: I’d rather have the singer do the all hard work before a performance than have to listen to them work at it during the performance. Yes, a performance should seem spontaneous and “joyful,” if you want. If you feel that Nebs gives you that, I am happy for you.

    Appunto: It was quite masterful the way Domingo (God love him) managed to take all of today’s young stars in his loving embrace.
