Not only was Milnes my gateway to opera, but my interview with him last year was my introduction to the incredible Parterre community. Milnes’s steely ring captured my attention as a kid and never let go. His maniacal embodiment of evil thrills me to this day.
A favorite Verdi performance from Brendan Latimer
My contribution this month honors the great Sherrill Milnes in his electrifying performance of Iago’s credo (1979, Met).
