Since the Met’s Anna Bolena makes its first TV appearance tonight, La Cieca thought you might enjoy an impromptu chat.
The cher public (pictured) will perhaps be happy to hear that La Cieca has managed to get her ducks in a row and now can present a complete schedule of chats through the end of January.
After a Monday that will go down in history as “the day nothing happened,” finally we may have a bit of excitement tonight as the Met broadcasts on Sirius and the web-based Listen Live. The occasion is the season premiere of La Fille du Régiment featuring Nino Machaidze and Lawrence Brownlee, with that lovely, litigious lark Kiri te Kanawa repeating her cameo as the Duchess of Krakenthorp. Discussion, of course, will ensue at 7:30 pm at La Casa della Cieca.
Here’s a new idea La Cieca hopes will meeting with the approval of you, the cher public: a schedule of chats for the upcoming month, centered around the Met’s Saturday afternoon broadcasts and the “Listen Live” features during the week. Comments and addenda are, as always, welcome.
