Same decor, costume style, stage devices. But if you think of the whole thing as an excuse for a good time with three great singers, then you're likely to have a very good time.Ivy Linhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03626556117524314236noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5952033003883282556.post-45461499303945408072011-04-06T21:36:05.120-04:002011-04-06T21:36:05.120-04:00I had a very good time at Ory last Saturday night....I had a very good time at Ory last Saturday night. I thought the production smart and delightful. Ms Damrau looked just sumptuous and sang the socks of the role. Juan Diego and Joyce are great Rossini singers, as was Ms Resmark -- a great find. Having seen a glitch-free Rheingold beautifully conducted by Mr Luisi that afternoon, the day counted as one of my very finest at the MET in a long time.Willhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14279473113628377106noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5952033003883282556.post-24776716732255861652011-04-04T23:39:20.379-04:002011-04-04T23:39:20.379-04:00I doesn't sound like as nearly a horrible nigh...I doesn't sound like as nearly a horrible night as James Jorden, Zachary Woolfe, or some of the parterre commenters might have you believe. In reading their reviews, I might have imagined needles stuck through my eyes, such that I wouldn't have been able to pay attention to the music. Glad you survived the ordeal. I had a great time, but I must be a masochist.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5952033003883282556.post-70729750782760905842011-04-03T13:02:50.073-04:002011-04-03T13:02:50.073-04:00Now that was quite a night!
