La Cieca reminds her cher public that the always inventive Gotham Chamber Opera returns this week with a rare production of Haydn’s L’isola disabitata. Mark Morris directs the non-dancing proceedings, with Neal Goren conducting the “typical early classical orchestra.” Castaways include Takesha Meshé Kizart, Valerie Ogbonnaya, Vale Rideout and budding barihunk Tom Corbeil.

According to Gotham’s website, “L’isola disabitata … was Haydn’s favorite of his own operas,” so you’ll have chance to see if you and Haydn share the same tastes. In music, La Cieca means.

    Jay- the way to avoid identity theft or hacking on facebook is not to put sensitive info on there in the first place. I’ve had a completely public profile on there for a couple of years and not had a moment’s trouble- unless you count friends tagging deeply ugly drunken photos of me as ‘trouble’…
