This story has been rumbling on for a while. From what I can gather, they are protesting about being asked to move in time to the music.
Darn this astigmatism. I read that as “they are protesting about being naked to move in time to the music.”
Ah, well of course that can be difficult. Not everything stops moving when one’s feet do.
I thought that’s what ‘molto vibrato’ is for?
Don’t miss Roberto Bolle’s naked photos on his twitter account:

Luckily If the La Scala chorister have a problem with moving to music it is lucky they weren’t asked to perform in this show:

Did that actually happen??
Or is that poster Photoshopped?
Well Carsten Wittmoser is a real bass who sings the Doktor in “Wozzeck”. I saw him as Jupiter in “Liebe der Danae” at Bard.
opera >>>>>>>>>>>>> ballet.
For the best naked photo of Roberto Bolle, Google search him. In about the third or fourth row of pictures is one of him 3/4 rear totally naked — very beautiful. A couple of years ago I did a blog entry on him which still generates more search hits than any other story I’ve ever posted. All the world wants to see Roberto.
