Saturday afternoon at the opera with Vincent and Louise
As I write this it is a Saturday afternoon when many around the world listen to the Metropolitan Opera broadcasts. I am not currently listening to the Met but to an online presentation of the opera “Vincent and Louise”. I thank my Austrian confrere Alexander Jernej for providing me with the link. He has also provided me with a pdf of the official program complete with libretto. He informs me they are working on producing a DVD of one of the performance. (See earlier famvin post Vincent and Louise for further background information about this work produced for the 350th anniversary.)
Here is the google translation of page with links to the music
