Something out of the "Parerre Box"

Michael Fabiano and Renee Fleming in San Francisco Opera's Lucrezia Borgia. Click to see read.
I think it's really great to see Fabiano, coming from AVA now establishing a rising career in the highly comparative opera world.  When we first saw him, it was rather surprising that he had such natural volume... After watching "The Audition", which is an excellent documentary, recording a rare subject of today's young opera singers's life as student, singer and competitor. (Thinking of the ending, just makes me wanna cry...)  Go Philly's Opera singers~!!

Fabiano's AVA era

A night with Aprile Millo at OONY--So...how did it go?

Ms. Millo's concert was full of wonderful, powerful singing, cheerful applause, flowers and warmth- And a little "accident" makes it perfect. I' will have to write more about the recital in the morning-need some time to digest and settle the excitement first, so good night for now :)
