@morley_erin @MetOpera @WrStaatsoper @elinagaranca I absolutely LOVED his Ring Cycle at the Met. Whenever I think about the Ring, I will always think of that production. I also love his Meistersinger for the Met. Such a talented artist. He will be missed.

@T_J_Newman Putting loose grocery carts in cart barns so they can't slide around the lot and possibly hit someone's car.

Cellist Jacqueline du Pré was born #OnThisDay in 1945. In 2020 for @OperawireNews, I wrote about a new opera based on her life.
