The new "temporada" of Madrid's Teatro Real is full of treats (see GTL Torn T post here) or download the 88-page .pdf here.
The inimitable William Christie conducting L'Incoronazione di Poppea, Juan Diego in I Puritani, Andrea Chénier with two impressive alternate casts -- Marcelo Alvarez & Fiorenza Cedolins, Fabio Armiliato & Daniela Dessì. The recitals -- Fleming, Bartoli, Damrau, Gruberova.
And a Ciofi-Nucci joint recital seems to be a nice, unusual morsel of opera goodness.
