This Will Make You Smile

I love these things . . . this is the Opera Company of Philadelphia performing "Brindisi" from Verdi's La Traviata in the Reading Terminal Market, during their Italian Festival.

LOVE!

I'm such a dork that I teared up when the older lady was swinging her Starbucks cup with the singer at about 2:00.

I love this stuff. It's good to see the city that has been famous the last few months for their unruly sports fans has a decent amount of culture.

Honestly - doing these kind of things might be what the opera needs to receive a nice kick in ticket sales.

O solo mio! (Did you know the Elvis song "It's Now or Never" is based upon that little operatic song? -- What? You don't care. Oh.) The first Opera I ever went to see was a huge production of Aida. It was like watching a circus. Perfect for me. --- Good night Thinklings. Thanks for making the past week a little lighter. Have a great Church day tomorrow. Peace to you.
