Susan Graham wasn't so bad either and that was her last Octavian, she's retiring the role. But I have to say that I found the production old fashioned pomp with no substance whatever. It was very unskilled at telling a story through behavior. I have heard that the Carmen was great. He's a wonderful director. Unfortunately I did not get to see it prior to Olga Boradina taking over the title role. I think now that I'll wait until a future season when the woman who created the role returns.Tedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05511240514127283024noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5578764475698868093.post-45859368495915064102010-01-26T21:55:47.611-05:002010-01-26T21:55:47.611-05:00Thanks for posting the clip of Der Rosenkavalier -...Thanks for posting the clip of Der Rosenkavalier -- reminds me that I need to find out when/if it is being rebroadcast since I missed the HD performance. Did make it to Carmen (luckily someone gave me a ticket as the theatre was sold out!). Was the best Carmen I've ever seen. <br /><br />Bought a Ready Steady Cook cookbook a few years ago when in GB. I'll have to get it out as it's been awhile since I've looked through it. And I'll be sure to check out the shows on YouTube.Anne Camillehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12419931136194330529noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5578764475698868093.post-70072333646206395132010-01-25T10:00:59.855-05:002010-01-25T10:00:59.855-05:00Aloi - Glad you enjoyed the latest in my Novelies ...Aloi - Glad you enjoyed the latest in my Novelies series.
