Amtrak police seem to be using "a hostile arrest campaign reminiscent of anti-LGBTQ policing from the Stonewall era," says a letter from Congressman Jerrold Nadler and others.

Another mixed review about the tenor. Tristan soon at the Met with Ms Boring ?? I am not sure.

News from New York! Team Opera Rara has been spotted at the Met Opera where they heard our Artistic Director Carlo Rizzi conduct Puccini's Turandot 👀 @bachtrack.com - 'the orchestra was at its finest, completely responsive to Rizzi’s every gesture, as he elicited all the colours...' 👏

Vocal Arts DC kicked off their 35th season with a stunner: please read my review of this feast of opera duets and solos performed by Erin Morley and Lawrence Brownlee (Photo: Caitlin Oldham) washingtonclassicalreview.com/2025/09/29/m...

Clara probably walked on some broken glass and cut her right front leg paw! Nothing to severe but she cannot walk. We are cleaning up the wound and putting a bandage on. #clara #shihtzu

Nice Contes d’Hoffmann at Opéra Comique. The tenorissimo was very good as usual, even if he tired a bit at the end due to the exhausting staging. Excellent muse, the 4 Ladies as usual too much for one single singer, some interesting ideas from Lotte de Beer but not inthe Olympia act. Worth it.

Back to the #gym ! #gymselfie

Most of the reviews I am reading about the tenor’s performance and how he was pacing his efforts makes me worried for his Tristan. Two lengthy roles but one in a comfortable venue versus an immense barn!

The one and only Brigitte.

Worth the read ! Thank you.

Royalties alert 🚨

The President is prosecuting his “political enemies” and his retaliation knows no bounds. He has turned the Department of Justice into his personal weapon. The American people see this for what it is - a dangerous abuse of power that will ultimately fail. Justice may be blind but she is not dumb.

I was back at 26 Federal Plaza today, where an ICE agent violently threw this bereft woman to the ground in front of her kids. She had not touched him. She did not pose any threat. She had to be taken to the hospital. (🎥: Elias Eliahu)
