May...Hi Toon, thanks for your interesting comments! May I ask what part/role you played in<br />the opera? I'm sure the artists involved in the production were a tad nervous (I would be,<br />anyhow) with the composer himself listening in/watching. Did you get the opportunity<br />to meet him? I have heard he was a very personable guy. Hope to hear back from you!<br /><br />Best,<br /><br />TZTzadikhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08157741254551349834noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1568534182252984517.post-42947361230853948692015-05-31T16:24:55.828-07:002015-05-31T16:24:55.828-07:00Scraps, yes I thought so.

Yo no soy un gran fan de la ópera, sin embargo yo disfruto ciertas óperas de Europa del Este (rusos, checos, polacos, etc.) y también American- aunque mi colección ópera es bastante pequeño. Mi difunto amigo Arnold Rosner escribió varios, y su ópera de cámara "Bontche Schweig" es maravilloso, es más como la música de cámara amasada con un ciclo de canciones. Probablemente no será nunca puesto en libertad por desgracia, pero quién sabe.Tzadikhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08157741254551349834noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1568534182252984517.post-75981211758039986762015-05-30T23:47:41.399-07:002015-05-30T23:47:41.399-07:00Some 20 years ago I was able to play in a performa...Some 20 years ago I was able to play in a performance of the opera Amahl and the Night Visitors by Carl Menotti. Mr. Menotti came over from the US to The Netherlands to see our performance. That was very special for us. I will never forget.<br />Many thanks and regards from The Netherlands.<br />Veel dank en groeten uit NederlandAThttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14192131981048512151noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1568534182252984517.post-49045733407690976222015-05-30T13:55:54.094-07:002015-05-30T13:55:54.094-07:00The font is definitely larger, and different.

It differs (with serifs) at "At Curtis, Mr. Menotti", and then gets larger at "Menotti’s first mature opera" (or maybe at the picture).<br /><br />cheers,<br /> Scraps<br />Scrapshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17482867072396893124noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1568534182252984517.post-65631615552127783802015-05-30T09:37:21.620-07:002015-05-30T09:37:21.620-07:00Lovely!
