  2. Hi! Thank you very much for your comments. It is great that you got the opportunity to attend this performance. It was the first time you saw Anna performing? She is really very good, both singing and acting on the stage.

  4. As far as I know, Anna was also there in a performance of Don Giovanni a couple of days after La Traviata. Did you saw this one too? This year Zürich opera season's is pretty good. Did you go to La Bohème or Il Trovatore? Do you plan to attend La Traviata with Kaufmann?

  6. I didn't watch Don giovanni, because her performance wasn't announced in the programm, until really late, and it was already booked up. I wish i could listen to Vivica Genaux in genève or to Bartoli in Zurich for the Cenerentola (if I remember right, i'm mixed up with the opera programms), but it is too much for my budget...
