Last night was the kind of night I love. Thanks to my MiL I got to attend a dress rehearsal of Manon at the Met! I drove in with a friend of hers, my sister-in-law and her bf. We had dinner at Bar Boulud before hand and then off to the show. I had delicious grilled halibut over lentils with grilled endive. I kept hearing that commericial with the lady saying "No, it's definately pronounced On-Deev."
Anna Netrebko was a wonderful Manon but I was most impressed by the tenor playing De Gries, Piotr Beczala. His aria in Act II was unreal...and I am guessing was holding back at some moments and not singing full voice. Still GORGEOUS! This is someone I am goin to make an effort to go see again. Going to an opera is always inspiring for me and makes me want to sing more than I do...
