    Have any of you discovered the Vocal Reckoning channel on youtube by ex-tenor Emilio Pons?  Here is his review of the Met's Tristan und Isolde and, at 12:25, he says Ryan Speedo Green was horrible - 

     

    I wonder who would please Mr Pons?

    The male whore sauna I am talking about is now DEAD and I have to admit was not in ver good shape but the choices of guys was MUCH BETTER! Guys were much better looking than Thermas....Nevertheless, Guys in Thermas were very gentle and not persistant ! One average looking morrocan guy who was quite persistant!

    Did the Morrocan guy have a beard?

    Not nights really, more afternoons (“la tarde” in Spain is 2pm to 8pm, not noon to 6pm like on this side of the Atlantic).  The chaperos (escorts) start coming in at 3pm and start leaving at 8pm.  Wednesday is a great day to go because the admission fee is slightly lower, 20.50€ instead of 23€.  Because both clients and chaperos take advantage of the discount (yes, chaperos have to pay the entry fee), the Sauna is usually hopping.

    Completely agree. I would only add that you can be lucky on a so called “quiet “ night. It only takes one to make an evening!

  4. The Tristan in the current Met production is Michael Spyres and received good reviews. Astonishingly he still singing Nemorino on the Elixer of Love! It’s hard to imagine a greater contrast.

  5. I just read a report that the Met due to public demand are staging an additional performance of Tristan and Isolde in the current season. The sensational Lise Davidsen in the title role has captured the public imagination. She has just concluded a debut season in the role in Barcelona to huge critical acclaim. 

    I saw her a few years ago in Don Carlo at Covent Garden and she received a rapturous reception. She has a magnificent voice and I have followed her career with interest ever since. Arguably the leading female singer in the world at the moment.
