JDF Denies Vienna an Encore (neener neener!!!), Montserrat Caballé Is Still Teh Awesome

Jdf

Last night, our Juan Diego Florez delighted Vienna audiences with his high-C mad skillz in La Fille du Regiment; & he denied those pesky Viennese an encore (because he ONLY loves US, HE REALLY LOVES us!!!111 in Milan and does not love you).

Also, the genius of la signora Montserrat Caballé reappeared on stage for a rare, fantastic cameo, even tastier than a Sachertorte: she played the Duchess of Krakenthorp, simply honoring the audience with her legendary presence.

I attended yesterday evening´s "la fille du regiment" at the Wienerstaatsoper......I must say that all the cast was simply beautiful, a true joy for both ears and eyes. Monserrat Caballe simply conquered the public with her funny self-irony.....lovely to see her again!
With Florez ....yes, you were lucky in Milan, but there are yet a lot of performances in Vienna .....maybe the bis will be for the last one!!!!

congratulations for your really beautiful blog!
