Thanks

I know dont what it is but i am totally in love with this Opera

I am also convinced that Opera is the highest artform ever and that the
human voiced blending in with an orchestra is something very special

Maria Stuarda does something to me and you ust dont know what it is


Donizetti was a genius but i am not the first person to say so


Something interesting I learned from the _Maria_Stuarda_ DVD -
how, according to the Italians, to pronounce "Leicester".
It's "Leicester" as in "Leicester Flatt and Earl Scruggs" or
"Me an' Leicester were out backa the cotton gin when Jethro
got sucked into the seed sifter." Can you believe how the Brits
dress up "Lester" to look snooty? Aren't you glad we Dutch
and Americans are so down-to-earth?
