This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.  Something like that only happens two or three times in a person's life!

Does anyone have any of the Vocalion quadrophonic CD remasterings?

They've got:
No, No Nanette
Company
A Little Night Music
Candide (1974)

A Chorus Line

Supposedly, even on a regular CD player you can hear new subtleties.

I wonder how difficult it is to find tenors that can sing the title role of Othello? Isn't it supposed to be a very difficult role to sing?

They've release a trailer for the Thursday Murder Club movie. Can't wait!

Thanks.  I'm going to watch it now.

Also noticed that there will be a new Thursday Murder Club novel released in September this year.

Now that there is a month on the release date I was able to request my library notify me when I can put a hold on it.  Thank you for mentioning it.

The house is only on eight acres, no room really for walking trails.

It's a very difficult role indeed. We usually get the up-and-coming professionals who want a professional role debut with the complete part, as we do everything (practically) uncut. Our Otello is John Kun Park who did Ismaele with us in Nabucco a few seasons ago.

Years ago we got fabulously lucky with our Turandot, Alexandra LoBianco, who has since gone on to sing in some of the most prominent opera stages in the USA and Europe. It's her birthday today - happy birthday Lexi!

Freddie, What a One Percent World is one of my favorite parodies. Quite appropriate!

Jane, glad your eye is OK. I have trouble with my right eye, too. You might want to try black currant seed oil. My eyes weren’t as dry after I started taking it.
