Another really short post. It’s 11.15pm and I have just returned from a performance of Rigoletto here in Wellington.
I am speechless and so following a tour backstage after the performance I offer you the most famous aria from Verdi’s masterpiece. Here it is sung by The Three Tenors – Luciano Pavarotti, Placido Domingo and Jose Carreras. Enjoy…
In the NZ Opera performance Rafael Rojas played the part of the Duke of Mantua. More on this production tomorrow.
And I am closing off now and having an early night with a new library book, cup of tea and my trusty companion Lotte, what more could a woman ask for?
It’s been such a long day and now it’s time for bed!
