  Both Aldens can be brilliant or infuriating, sometimes at the same time. This production looks intriguing. I don't entirely get it, but I would love a chance to see the whole thing.

  I realize it's very Eric Cartman of me, but the glass harmonica on stage looks like an archaic Weber grill. I think I'd have to see the whole production to understand what they're...

  We haven't had spats here since the days of Mrs. Claggart! Of course, these are civil by comparison.

  Thank goodness it is not posthumous.

  I think it will sell just fine. l. Aida did, despite less than stellar reviews. BTW, Aida is also elling quite well for the resIt of the season. I will probably see the Traviata, too, even though I...

  I have a similar attitude. I will listen to Puritani at home. I am glad she sings Violetta in March 2026 when I’ll be in NYC for T&I and not Elvira. I will definitely go to Traviata, not sure...

  That would be about the time I heard him as the Commendatore....with Milnes, Moser, Berry...Memorable, even with that cast. I did see Sutherland the year (or two years?) before in Hoffmann, which...

  The challenge with any new cast in that production is that all the videos would need to be reshot with the new cast members.

  No more so than, say, Joey Stefano? That Pizza Boy stopped delivering a long time before he died.

  And though I’m glad i heard Sutherland (pretty astounding), Pavarotti and Milnes in 1976, the best sung that night was done by James Morris.

  She’s not taking any students this season! (As she sneered as Nordica after the latter’s apparently wonderful Bayreuth Elsa). I guess one enduring pull of Parterre is being able to air 131 year-old...

  Well, let’s not forget that the creator of the complete role of Woglinde was no less than Lilli Lehmann! Met Woglindes include Fritzi Scheff, Erna Berger, Steber, Arroyo and Erin Morley as well as...

  I love Brownlee as Arturo he is perfect.

  That would correspond with my impression. With the exception of Brownlee (the first time I saw him) it was a dreary night. I didn't see it when it was new (and I was also 16) but I salute the...

  She's come a long way from Woglinde.

  I recall James being very impressed with Brownlee and kind of disgusted that the production — which I found retrograde when it was new and I was 16- was so unworthy of his abilities. As we walked...
