  Exactly. It looks to me like the recent Parterre infatuation with Vanzo is more of a fad than a result of personal experience. Not that he wasn’t quite good, but that people here didn’t have much...

  Hahahaha!! Sort of like Samson. We can only hope and pray! This time I’ll see it. Didn’t see the first two acts when we went last time. I bow my head and accept my fate about La Watusi. At least...

  Then — Thank your Mother for me for not only having good sense but good taste. She must still have had quite a lot of force and ability left at that time to pull those both off, I must say. They’re...

  Thank you for the post. Wonderful performance. My first Lucrezia was Beverly Sills. I fell in love with the opera and thought she was exciting. I grew up with NYCO. I first saw her Stuarda at the...

  It was Constantine Orbelian and his then Moscow Chamber Orchestra who presented the Medée at Carnegie Hall. Irini Tsirakidis had plenty of oomph as Ermione in a blazing concert version. By the time...

  Well, they loved his recordings when I played them to them later but had no specific recollection of him in 1965-- they certainly didn't about that performance when I was 5! But maybe 10 years...

  I just know him from clips and recording. And just love his voice. I saw him in Scottsboro Boys and he blew me away. Also, in Porgy and Bess. And I saw him in a Stephen Schwartz concert at The Met...

  I was one of those people who felt he did not have the voice for the role. For me the music and singing is so important in Carousel. They even cut out Greatest Judge of All because I assume he...
