Thaïs at the Châtelet: Wrap-up Post


Gerald Finley (Athanaël) and Renée Fleming (Thaïs) during curtain calls on April 21, 2007, following the last of three performances at the Châtelet in Paris.

I was lucky to attend all three performances last week, and I also attended a performance of Simon Boccanegra, starring Dmitri Hvorostovsky, at the Bastille. More later; see previous posts for some commentary on Thaïs.

Thanks so much for crediting the photo and linking to me--I got some nice traffic!

Yes, "souvenirs" are lovely! Thank you soooo much. Believe, people in the industry love this stuff just as much as we fans do.
