I’m filled with hope, and delighted to return to the stage this summer, and join my colleagues in Madrid, for 4 performances of LA TRAVIATA @Teatro_Real on July 18, 22, 25, and 28!

I’m not often moved as I travel by years. But this day, I sat and did not move. I listened through years I knew well, but had forgot. Thank you @keimiller and @poetry_East

@Roger_Scruton Can Wagnerian purity be subdivided, so that when lost an echo remains in the self to observe that loss? #parsifal

[Benbo Smith @benbosmithuk]

So glad
