Hello, fellow opera lovers!

I am thinking about seeing the HD screening of Massenet's Cendrillon - aka the classic Cinderella story - from ROH's July 2011 run starring Joyce DiDonato (Cendrillon), Alice Coote (Prince Charming), Eglise Gutierrez (Fairy Godmother), Ewa Podles (Stepmother)

If there is any interest, we can organize a carpool.

Post-opera dinner & music-making, hosted by Todd!

Joyce DiDonato (aka Cendrillon) previews her role: http://www.youtube.co....

Now, I may be shooting myself in the foot with this, but the same production was just done in Belgium with a different cast and there's a free online streaming available until Jan 21 (no English subtitles though): http://www.lamonnaie.....

Update from Todd's post at Boston Classical Meetup:

Hi Everyone--

Here is the menu for the after concert dinner music party at my place (101 Regent Ave. #11 Providence, RI) --just in case some of you are on the fence as to whether you will come or not...

It looks as though some gifted musicians will be joining us from within the group and beyond...a friend is bringing his trumpet, another friend may be bringing Spanish piano music. So plan to come hungry and leave happy...
