Goodbye, Hugues Cuénod. I knew you only as the four tenor character parts in Richard Bonynge's 1971 Les contes d'Hoffmann, but you were so marvelous there, I was glad to know you were still in the world. On the other hand, you were a hundred and eight.
(Off to find a recording of the premiere of The Rake's Progress. And then I shall hear Frank Kelley in your role in the spring.)
