the art of the gossipmonger

Many of you (well, a few of you) have expressed an interest in La Cieca’s working process as a journalist. As such, your doyenne thought she would share with you dear people some rare documentary footage of La Cieca’s early days reporting and writing opera gossip.

Or, in other words: this, cher public, is how the sausage is made.

    prosti: Don’t tell your grandmother how to suck eggs. La Cieca finds Wenarto amusing and she enjoys his links.

  • Sanford says:

    Lots of other people here love Wenarto too.

    The Wagner scene was from one of her early movies, which was, in fact, released. It was from about the same period as her movie of Girl Of The Golden West.

    But, Cieca…

    Hey vocal arts fans–YT has a number of vaudios by Dorothy Collins and some stuff from Your Hit Parade in the 50s. No one should miss Snooky Lanson singing Cry, from ’52. I don’t think Snooky has ever been mentioned in Parterre before.

    Wenarto’s Seraphim ranks up there with Wzauscher’s Salome and Izzy Anderson’s shirtless Vogelganger bin ich ja.

  • Tere says:

    Oh my gosh, La Cieca, please tell me that you are kidding!!

    I was planning on making my donation to your site by this Friday (pay day for me) to show my support to you and the great job that I think you do. But if you endorse this guy Wenarto -who is even listed as your colleage- I will have to reconsider my donation. This is worse than Domingo endorsing Villazon!!!

    La Cieca please make clear your position regarding this guy Wenarto.

    Thanks,
