Went to a dress; most singers more or less just "marked"; looking forward to hear them actually sing tomorrow night; nice well rounded cast; the theater itself is awesome, with or without the singers ;-).
ReplyDeleteI am a little surprised that JK was marking. But he IS pretty careful with his instrument. I am looking forward to hearing your impressions. I think I am going to have to start with Arabella tomorrow, since the BSO probably won't give us a second chance at it. (vs. medici's archives)
DeleteWhat did you think of that Arabella?
DeleteUnfortunately I didn't get to see/hear the whole thing. I would love to track down a copy! I want to know more about the giant x-shaped staircase. I liked what I did hear!
