they have so much in common it’s a phenomenon

La Cieca is perhaps a little slow on the uptake these days.  Your dimwitted doyenne only just noticed (when it was pointed out to her, that is) that the conductor for Anna Netrebko‘s return to the stage at the Mariinsky on January 14 was Keri-Lynn Wilson. Ms. Wilson is of course not only a distinguished maestro in her own right, but, by the oddest sort of coincidence, related by marriage to an impresario with whose theater Ms. Netrebko’s career is very closely entwined. Small, La Cieca marvels, and funny! And fine?
