El Nĩno, But the Met’s 20.05.2024 13:08
Hi there I’m finally back for long. I have literally no idea about what I’m saying in the episode. I’m pretty satisfied with all of the productions Met has put out. And yesterday in the open house I talked to the staff who’s a part of the Aida’s crop team, don’t feel much different between this new production and what we had in 2023. Anyway I hope I can finish my script for Orpheus in short. I w...
RIP Sir Andrew Davis | Massenet's Thais 26.04.2024 18:42
Maestro, you'll always live in all of our hearts. Thais is a great opera to listen to, and my recent favorite. I listened to this recording four times this week only. Spring is here and it's time to get out more and get in touch with the nature 🌸 Any recommendation for any recording? ©All recordings I played is for educational purpose only Send Aulinda a Text Message Support the show E...
The Contemporary Surrealism Angel 15.04.2024 15:37
There's nothing better than seeing rich people go crazy.... well that's a joke. I found myself having this unexpected ability to appreciate and enjoy contemporary works. I do think the film adds-on a lot to the opera, the adaptations made to this already solid original film are interesting. Spanish artists are so good at surrealism creation, for example, Salvador Dalí . His paintings are...
Add-ons for Ep.12 Romeo and Juliet 07.04.2024 7:18
Hope someone could identify that the left corner random drawing is an email symbol... I love French operas, especially those related to love, French people are really talented at revolution and love. I should work more efficiently and stop being late... need to finish my review on the Beethoven string quartet.

The Bored Swallow - Met's La Rondine 01.04.2024 21:00
Welcome back! La Rondine is a great work :) One of the most famous English French courtesan I can think of is Cora Pearl, she published a memory, Mémoires de Cora Pearl . If you are interested at this topic, reading it will be a good choice. Happy April fools day! I can't think of any fools or jokes but enjoy!

Fate or Gate, that's a Question. 24.03.2024 21:37
Why is it fate or gate because 1. Destino -> fate, 2. my desire to leave -> door -> gate. And that is based on the quote "To be, or not to be, that is the question." from Shakespeare's Hamlet. Hope you get my little humor! Is it time to get a butter mic? I do think the sound quality is kinda unsatisfied. Please listen to Serafin and Callas' version of La Forza del De...
Romeo & Juliet? I rather stay home! 09.03.2024 20:24
Hi everyone I'm finally back! I think I do want to mention here is that Juliet is about 14 year olds when marrying Romeo... The opera itself is splendid, beautiful. But not the met's presentation. I try to invite Federick Ballentine to my school, will make some update if that happens. Can't wait to see the new production of La Forza del Destino, time to judge some new production. S...

Get Some Butterfly & Met's Light 26.01.2024 25:11
