The Metropolitan Opera's Gotterdammerung - WOW WOW WOW -- loved every minute - every second --of the 6+ hours. Jay Hunter Morris and Deborah Voight were brilliant. Luisi's conducting was stellar. Such beauty and such pathos! My only complaint? The immolation scene -- with an unlimited budget and brilliant designers and technician,s one would think that the world going up in flames would be a little more impressive and less cheesy -- aside from that, pure joy. We have now seen the entire Ring - an impressive feat and one we can't wait to repeat. Tomorrow, Kevin Spacey in Richard III and NEXT SUNDAY? DWEEZIL ZAPPA AND THE BAND IN AGOURA HILLS! What culture!!!!!!!!!
Love a bit of Wagner. Congrats on seeing the ring cycle. It is pretty impressive! I really wish that I got around to seeing the Metro Opera. You'll just have to keep telling me how good it was!
A life well lived Gary, just can't beat that. You have inspired me to check out The Ring; it's on periodic rotation on one of the UK TV channels, not sure which orchestra. That is also a smoking new set list from ZPZ , love it, love it, love it!
