If I may I would suggest you ought to fight any ‘new’ arrangements of operettas that are so beautiful as they are. I have just found (YouTube) the horrible BARBEBLEUE at the Berlin’s Komische Oper: I watched the first 15 minutes and then I had to throw my dvd to the trash can. How they dare to trasnform operettas into pornographic theatre? I have the fortune to possess the Geneve production and the 2-cd-set of BARBEBLEUE just from the glorious Ohio L: O;: Co: I have also been in Budapest and also there at that famous Operetta Theatre it may happen that operettas become ‘something else’. One of the greatest Kalman’s operettas – DIE BAJADERE – has become a potpourri of nonsense. they point out to the ‘show’ more than to the real values. Well, pardon me, but think about what I said. Thanks and all the best from Genoa, Italy,
Ernesto

been in a nursing home. Your staff has always been very ‘
helpful when I brought her down with an aide but unfortunately, we are unable to do it anymore. Many thanks
again and keep up the terrific work you all do.
