I know I'm blowing my own trumpet here but I'm actually good at something. Can't wait to tell my therapist on Thurs lol |
That's exciting! I remember you writing about taking lessons. I think that's wonderful!
I like opera, too. My husband especially loves opera. His nephew bought us tickets at the Metropolitan Opera House sometime this year. It will be the Czech opera "Káťa Kabanová" by Leoš Janáček. We used to go to the Met a lot in the past.
One time, years ago, we met the Czech soprano Magdalena Kožená at a concert at Lincoln Center. She was not so well-known then. She was standing alone in the hallway after the concert and only my husband and I approached her to compliment her wonderful performance and ask her questions. She is now a big star and married to the conductor Sir Simon Rattle. She's a very pleasant lovely lady with an amazing voice.
