    But you don't have Exile of the Forebird, do you?

    One of my all time favourite recordings but I haven't listened to it for well over a year. I wanted to keep in my memory 'my' Macbeth and this time last May when I seemed to spend every weekend at ROH seeing something Macbeth related. I have the DVD now so I can always watch 'my' Macbeth if I want to re-live that time.

    So I've watched that live transmission of I Capuelai e I Moenayei from Bayerischer but I've watched it with screen turned off because my internet couldn't catch up with the picture transmission so I've watched the sound only. Anna Netrebko is alive and well. Kasarova is well as well but I can tell that even more well she sung in her other performances of this role. Male crew very fine, Dimitri Pittas was nice pieces, they usually cast poor Tebaldos but he wasn't bad at all BUT I WOULD PREFER FLÓREZ anyway, all nice pieces.

    What do you think about Kožena? I heard that at the end of performance singers always came together on stage as if they didn't dare to send her alone. (that was in Berlin not in Salzburg.)
