I'm not into flowers and sweet colory stuff (quite the opposite actually), but the wake of Spring is always irresistible... It's sunny, the new green is coming and the flowers are popping up all over the place...
Ah, this entry is not about Spring. It's to suggest you to take 5 minutes of your time and...
enjoy Mariusz Kwiecien, a baritone who we admired last June in Paris for his terrific Krol Roger; he's currently stealing the show (Le Nozze) at Lyric Opera of Chicago. Listen to his Count Almaviva & enjoy (recorded this week in Chicago)

You can catch Mariusz singing Almaviva in London next June, and in Munich in July.
quite right --- have already booked tickets for both munich performances :).
ReplyDeleteI hope to catch one too ;)

ReplyDeletemr mariusz i have also seen as don and as onegin - both great.

ReplyDeleteLucky you to be able to see Les Carmelites right off the bat. I hope I'll get to see it in April (well, at least I hope I will ;) )
