Must the winter come so soon?
On Tuesday we got one of the Met’s inveterate classics, which meant yet another opportunity to gaze upon the old accessories: Donkey cart! Teal shawl! Fugly plaid slacks!
28 pieces since 2010 — in 18 roles, at 10 companies, most often at Metropolitan Opera.
5 pieces as Colline — stats above show all coverage for Matthew Rose.

La bohéme returned to the stage of the Metropolitan Opera once again last night (does it ever leave?)
I was extraordinarily happy Monday evening to encounter Angel Blue and Russell Thomas as Mimi and Rodolfo.
One of the major complaints about the five year casting system (as well as the shared productions by different companies) is that operatic events are rarely surprises anymore.
Every year I say I’m not going to another La Bohème because I’ve seen this too many times.
