Ma quando vien lo sgelo, il primo sol'è mio...


Visit the promotional DG site on the Netrebko-Villazón Bohéme. There you 'll find a very interesting video with la Netrebko wearing hair rollers (!!!) or something like that and Rolando rocking with the piano.

Here' re some pics.






Beautiful, ain't they?

Based on the recent DGG-Studer incident in Madrid, the right thing to do is to boycott the record label, at least until they issue an apology to the artist.

Take also a look at http://www.prestoclassical.co.uk/r/DG/4776600

It is great when there is such a chemistry between both of them! And Rolando looks younger than usual.

I think you 're absolutely right anonymous.

I have just read about the Studer incident in Madrid. What about to write mails asking them to apologize?

I'd be surprised if the DGG execs apologized to her since they are a pack of tasteless ignoramuses. But Plácido Domingo was there and, considering his clout, I would expect him to say something to them. On the other hand, Domingo may be far more interested in enhancing his dominion and kissing the Pope's hand (not to mention another body part) than standing up for what is right. I am willing to bet.

Absolutely tasteless comments showing a lot of yourself.

Understood, Carlos. But sometimes there is no other way to express outrage. The ---real--- bad taste resides somewhere else in this situation. In my opinion, of course.
