Good Lord, Manou! So that’s where Betsy’s been! Out Hollywood way, doing Disney voiceovers. In Bulgarian. But tell me, darling M, do you really think this is her Fach? Doesn’t she run the danger of losing her diaphragm? Of course, I don’t suppose Betsy gives a Fach.
I’ll do this for her: “MOOOOAAAANNNN.”
One politely wonders if there’s any connection between one of the posters on this particular thread and a certain beloved individual who clicked on the Donate button to help support my recital. If so, I could kiss you. I would kiss you, but I just washed my hay-uh.
Speaking of said recital, rehearsals are amazing. TO find the pleasure in the process and the thrill of singing, after 23 years away from it, is one of the greatest joys of my life. My accompanist and I work so well together that we’re already planning the next one. We’re debating between a Brel/Piaf evening or lieder.
Mwouah!
I like my contatas in a glass with lots of gin.
I like my contraltos with nice tatas, too.
Bluesweet, your contatas fit in a glass? Perhaps you should consult with Heidi Montag’s plastic surgeon?
Sanford- Glad to hear it went well.
My adivice on the next recital is, don’t be Timid, Frieda. Stick with the French Language. You’ll soon say, Non, Je ne regrette rien.
Sanford: A glass of the size I like would hold the largest contralto tatas, plenty of gin and my contatas as well.
Is that a glass or a jacuzzi?
After the first half hour, it hardly matters.
I love the Brel. And while I love Jacques Brel Is Alive And Well (the original not the revival), I didn’t really get a sense of it until I listened to him. The American translations are a little treacly in comparison.
My French is pretty good. And if you love my French, you’ll really love my Greek. Which brings me back to Penetrating Wagner’s Ring.
