As both a New Yorker and a hopeless opera lover, I find it painful to watch this particular staging and the way in which the principals stand around at the curtain in hushed horror among the ashes under a clear sky. It vividly recalls the deadly quiet in my city after 9/11. Its emotional impact is not lessened by my strong conviction that this is just about Mozart's most powerful score.

Here Here! I am very passionate about my opera! I can tell you are too!
I have season tickets for the MET and San Francisco Opera House.
So Sublime! I find myself listening to this piece again and again!
