Ah, pas de souper avec Suppè:)

I expected at least one Operetta composer at dinner.  :D

When I see the covers of these discs, I think of you Harry.  :)

That would have been Franz von Suppe"as the Fourth composer. For I think "Die Schöne Galathee" is a  absolute masterwork. Andrea Bogner, is not to be beaten in her role. I have played this recording at least 25 times in one year.

No clue how they'd all get along, but I would love to get to know each of them.
