Hey all! My parents are in town and we're headed off to Munich tomorrow so I'm going to make this short and sweet. First and foremost, Brenda's performance of Lucia in Lucia di Lammermoor on Saturday was an incredible success. When her first aria ended Brenda was greeted with an explosion of applause and bravos. The audience obviously loved the entire cast and showed their appreciation at the end of the opera by clapping longer than I've ever seen an audience clap at Oper Frankfurt.
I've included a couple of pictures from Saturday night. The first is Brenda in her bloody wedding dress immediately after the performance. The second is with tenor Joseph Calleja and baritone Aris Argiris at the curtain call. Forgive the fuzziness of the second picture, there wasn't a lot of light in the audience at the time.
I will try to write a little more later in the week about Brenda's outstanding performance as well as my upcoming travels with my parents. Until then, have a great week!
