I don't know why this has seemed so difficult -- well, it's because the Met keep changing the availability date on the website -- but single tickets to An...
The panels are officially scheduled for one hour and forty-five minutes, but they sometimes end earlier, although I doubt that this one will. They know that...
Hi Patrick, I'm glad that you finally got your tickets. It sounds like your seats are pretty good, too. Hopefuly we can meet up sometime. I'll be arriving...
Thanks once again for the information, Clare. I won't count on going to the theater that night, especially since I freak out if I'm not in my seat at least 20...
I'm taking time off next month for my birthday, too! Happy birthday to us! I'll look for you on opening night -- I think you're a few rows behind me, right? I...
Happy Birthday! When is yours? Mine is on Oct. 20th and I will be going to Vegas. My husband just happens to have a business trip scheduled there at that...
Mine's the 15th. . . . I haven't yet started looking for a place to stay. I'm bracing myself. I do have some friends who just moved to Brooklyn, but that's...
Hi all, Here's a little break from all the American Tragedy discussions . . . I don't think anyone's mentioned this here yet, but according to the Atlanta...
Too bad I will just be coming back from another trip at that time, otherwise I would consider going. I wonder when all these new performance dates will be...
I was also tempted but it's too close to the Houston trip I already had in mind. I know sometimes organizations don't let singers make performance dates ...
Wow! Some exciting stuff coming up! I hope you noticed there are several recording sessions -- the Sibelius and also the Viardot songs (which will be on DVD)....
I realize that this is a Nathan Gunn group -- and I think he is great -- but I want to introduce you to another wonderful baritone, who has both been singing...
Thank you, Clare! I will keep an eye out for him. Elizabeth ... great -- but I want to introduce you to another wonderful baritone, who has both been singing...
Yes, I did notice! I'll be waiting anxiously for the DVD. Now on top of researching An American Tragedy, I'll have to read up on Viardot as well. So much to...
I'm doing this off the top of my head, so I hope someone can step in and correct or expand my knowledge. Pauline Viardot was from the very musical Garcia ...
Your facts about Viardot are accurate but I do think you understate her importance as a singer. She was renowned for her operatic assumptions during her ...
Yes -- but there is even more---had you been a student of voice in the mid-20th Century, your voice teacher would have given you more than one book of vocal...
I believe that Cecilia Bartoli has a few Viardot songs on one of her CD's. When she was in Orlando about 7 years ago she included some in a recital....
I think the two of them also did a Barbiere in Munich, so it might be from that. I was very impressed with Brownlee when I heard him in Seattle. I hadn't heard...
I believe I remember Nathan saying that the Munich Barbiere was a recording session, but I could be wrong (I think early senility is starting to set in)....
I think the Munich Barbiere was broadcast, which would surprise me if they were making a commercial recording. But who can explain the strange ways of the...
I just checked out Lawrence's website and under Recent Engagements is says: May 2005: Count Almaviva (Il Barbiere di Siviglia) - Munich Radio Orchestra - Sony...
Thanks -- I should have just assumed he had a website as well! I do think it's odd that they would broadcast something being recorded for official release,...
Would someone kindly tell me who Lawrence is? Clare in New York evflagg <no_reply@yahoogroups.com> wrote: I just checked out Lawrence's website and under...
not really unusual, Munich radio has frequently been the source of recordings issued commercially. Wade Lewis ... From: To: fansofnathangunn@yahoogroups.com ...
Thanks for the clarification, Wade. I hadn't realized that commercial recordings were issued from Munich radio. To be blunt, there are already copies of this...
