mmmmmmmmmmmmmm for René!
"L'elisir d'amore" or "L'elisir di kitsch" in all...its grandeur!
Viva las Vegas and viva the King in the opera! Let me guess whose turn is next; Madonna's?
Maria.
I just heard that René Pape cancelled due to illness.
mike - don´t believe everything you hear :) He was ill, and the intermission was prolonged because of it, but he did sing it all.
