Gateway divas
Here’s an entertaining essay in which the author acts as a sort of Netflix queue algorithm for pop music fan who think they might want to dabble in the hard stuff. [Time Out New York]

Admirers of Kanye West might have gotten into a groove with David Poleri or Michele Molese.
oh no, I am not on the list….
insipid
thanks for giving this much more attention than it deserves?
I know this is completely random, but wouldn’t Maria and Renata T on the view have been fun???
You have to admit it’s a happy thing that opera is chic enough to get a featurette in minimal-attention-span Time Out. I’d actually heard of one or two of the pop singers mentioned. Doesn’t Madonna have a bit part in Tosca already?
Madonna could maybe just about manage to pipe out the shepherd boy’s notes, with the help of some havey miking. Or she could try the jailer (like Itzhak Perlman did in the Scotto/Levine recording, if I’m not mistaken).
A precious opportunity was lost when no one invited Mr. Barry White to record Samiel in FREISCHUETZ.(“”I don’t wanna see no bullets…”)
Who does Olivia Giovetti think she’s talking to? Children?
Wait a minute there……..
Krunoslav, what a brilliant idea. Do you that the Walrus of Lurve’s wife, the fabulously named Glodean, would have cut it as Agathe?
oh for god’s sake, it’s Time Out. what does anyone expect? informed journalism?
i sometimes find depressing the low tolerance for whimsy around here.
