The two leads of Alceste, Anna Caterina Antonacci and Gregory Kunde arrived in Athens on Thursday and headed straight to the press conference where they made some pretty interesting points on Gluck's music and his heroine.
The two of them had primarily worked together in Athens, in a production of "L' Incoronazione di Poppea", met again in Paris for Les Troyens (available on DVD) and now they reunite, just for two nights, to sing the (not so) fatal couple of Alceste and Admète.

I am so excited after the Medea last year to be seeing her again. And even more thrilled that I will be seeing it in the company of our own Parsi!
I m even more thrilled for the hot-dog we 'll be having afterwards :)
you are taking me to a Athenian hot dog stand? the adventure never ends!
It's not just any athenian hot-dog stand! It's a highly operatic hot-dog stand! I can remember myself having hot-dogs there with Peter Katona, Angela Marambio, etc etc
