She's not curdled at all- she's the second best I've heard in the part, I think. I hope I don't need to spell out who the best is.<BR/><BR/>One Maxim Mikhailov is the Gremin.jondrytayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07014577384156823525noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17999907.post-68268729679411872652008-09-27T13:27:00.000-05:002008-09-27T13:27:00.000-05:00amerj: I'm trying to remember if it's Nortsov on t...amerj: I'm trying to remember if it's Nortsov on the set I never listen to because the Tatiana has such a curdled voice...with I think Reizen as Gremin or something?Maury D'annatohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14136129943169313348noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17999907.post-52710746410314396642008-09-27T13:26:00.000-05:002008-09-27T13:26:00.000-05:00american symphony orhcestra: I'm surprised you can...american symphony orhcestra: I'm surprised you can all crowd around one keyboard.

NOW I tell you. And, you're right, Pantaleimon is a hell of a name.<BR/><BR/>Mattei was a terrific Count Almaviva in the recent Nozze at Covent Garden- for the revival of the McVicar production Mattei and D'Arcangelo replaced Finley and Schrott, and I think we revivalists had the better of the deal. He did look disturbingly like Roger Federer, though, which added all kinds of tennisy nuances to the production.jondrytayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07014577384156823525noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17999907.post-14306743234223493452008-09-26T11:48:00.000-05:002008-09-26T11:48:00.000-05:00AMERICAN SYMPHONY ORCHESTRALeon Botstein, Music Di...AMERICAN SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA<BR/><BR/>Leon Botstein, Music Director<BR/><BR/>Celebrates its 46th Season with:<BR/>ÉDOUARD LALO'S LE ROI D'YS<BR/><BR/>A tale of passion, scorn and redemption.<BR/>A city faced with watery annihilation.<BR/>And the King's daughter behind it all.<BR/><BR/>Friday, October 3rd at 8PM<BR/>Avery Fisher Hall, Lincoln Center<BR/><BR/>FOR TICKETS CALL : 212.868.9ASO<BR/>or VISIT WWW.AMERICANSYMPHONY.ORG <BR/><BR/><BR/>Join Maestro Leon Botstein 75 minutes prior to performance for an illuminating pre-concert discussion.
