I Capuleti e I Montecchi, Bayerische Staatsoper, München 16. May 2012
By Herbert

I liked tonight's show even more than the first one last Saturday, because the audience was more spontaneous and enthusiastic. There were not so many "posh" people who just wanted to be seen, but real opera enthusiasts or "afficionados".

Anna's voice and her choreography especially in the second scene of the first act were adorable. This scene completely belonged to her, and the love duet with her Romeo / Vesselina Kasarova was one of the highlights of the opera. Although she had just a few days for rehearsals, Anna plays and sings this role as if there had been several weeks of rehearsing. She's a phenomenon!

Today there were six microphones at the stage edge, so there might be a radio recording coming up!

At the stage door Anna appeared in a summer dress (although it was quite fresh tonight), and she spent a lot of time for autographs and photos, until Erwin Schrott came in. Anna then said: "Oh, I have to go" - and they went to a taxi waiting outside.

Everybody who can watch the live stream next Saturday on should not miss it at all!!
