nor in competing for the favor of wayward friends.
His only competition was with himself. — Françoise Gilot

Will be seeing The Lyric Opera of Chicago's production of Wozzeck on November 15th.

Just got my own tickets to this, but for the upcoming Saturday (7th). Lyric is having a promo today, $39 per ticket for this performance! Glad I grabbed 'em when I could!

Quote from: Brewski on October 04, 2015, 12:46:22 PMSoloists aside for the moment, I love Metzmacher's recording. Hope the performance is good.

Heard & saw Metzmacher's performance of Wozzeck in La Scala, Milan, last Friday night. And have to confess that I enjoyed it a lot, to my honest surprise. Think it was really good, thanks for the support.  :)
... music is not only an 'entertainment', nor a mere luxury, but a necessity of the spiritual if not of the physical life, an opening of those magic casements through which we can catch a glimpse of that country where ultimate reality will be found.    RVW, 1948

This afternoon, a voice recital, music by Schumann, Weill, and James Hotchkiss Rogers, sung by tenor Thos Gregg, accompanied by Triad's own Thos Stumpf.

Having just revisited a number of his other song opera, I don't doubt that..

I'd love to go to the Dallas Symphony this weekend (David Zinman conducts Berlioz' Faust, complete) and next weekend (Simone Young conducts Pfitzner, Glass Violin Concerto No. 1, and Planets) but their website has been broken for weeks and returns server errors every time I try to buy a ticket.  :( :(

Will no doubt have to give them a call.

Boo! That Berlioz is one of my favorite scores.

Next Wednesday, in Finnish National Opera, The Nose, by Shostakovich. My first viewing of the piece.

Excellent!  A unique opera.  That should be an entertaining one!  :)
