RE: #13
Seems like the next Opera America conference would probably take place in a basement somewhere itself.
where is this photo froM?
rysanekfreak: LOL! Bravo!
Not wanting another tenor on the “indisposed” list, the chorus boys all advocate a band-aid for Alagna’s nasty paper cut.
Its nice to see OA on your page. I hope there is a prize for a less provocative ID. Regina has the singers right. And the show could be none other than than Lady Macbeth of Mtsensk which opened Tuesday.
Even on stage, Met audience cannot hear “inaudible” singers
Tristan und Isolde, with all, ALL the covers for Tristan.
Yes, Joanie, it’s true, these boys are all Ricky’s proteges.
The one who wins gets gangbanged first!
rysanekfreak: that one just made me spit out my tea! Hilarious.
Armida — it’s going to be fun to see Fleming standing between Brownlee and Banks. It’ll be an “Ebony and Ivory” Munchkin sandwich!
Fanciulla, Act I, the bible lesson.
Mahagonny?
I love the suggestive barrel!
Eleanor Steber and Placido Domingo
At the Continental Baths.
RCA Red Seal disc soon to be issued!
Macy’s is having a related White Sale.
