Und darum ist Musik die heilige unter den Künsten

Last night was spent with the Boston Lyric Opera's Ariadne auf Naxos, in which commedia dell' arte and classical myth crash into one another head-on and everybody (especially the audience) wins; today I am running for a train, to spend the next couple of days with hans_the_bold in New Haven. More when I return or have e-mail access, whenever that may be.
