It's not easy being green...


My friend (some of you know who he is, dammit) just emailed his ticket vault inventory to me. I'm positively GREEN with envy.

9/17: Lucia di Lammermoor (Dessay, Polezani), Opera Bastille, Paris
9/18: Salome, Opera Bastille, Paris
10/2: La Clemenza di Tito (Antonacci), Opera Garnier, Paris
10/15: Les Troyens, Opera Bastille, Paris
10/15: Bryn Terfel, Salle Pleyel, Paris
10/18: Bejun Mehta, Chatelet, Paris
10/20: Soile Isokoski, Salle Pleyel, Paris
11/4: Angela Gheorghiu, Salle Pleyel, Paris
11/24: Andreas Scholl, Barbican, London
12/2: Renee Fleming, Barbican, London
12/8: Ben Heppner, Salle Pleyel, Paris
12/12: Felicity Lott, Chatelet, Paris
12/18: Don Carlo (stunning casting), Met, New York
1/23: Ian Bostridge, Chatelet, Paris
2/17: Jenufa (Mattila, Silja), Met, New York
2/17: Eugene Onegin (Fleming, Hvorostovsky), Met, New York
3/16: Mattias Goerne, Salle Pleyel, Paris
4/4: St. John's Passion (Scholl), Chatelet, Paris
4/5: Barbara Bonney, Chatelet, Paris (CANCELED--will have to see what's what with this)
4/16: Thais (Fleming), Chatelet, Paris
4/19: Thais (Fleming), Chatelet, Paris
that's where it stands now. (i count 21--might have forgotten one--will have to check the tix--i wrote this list off my calendar.) champs-elysees (kiri/flicka, scholl in "cesare," villazon/netrebko, lots of stuff) and a lot of the paris opera haven't gone on sale yet.
