Perfect.<br /><br />Your comments on Verdi are so welcome. My hometown of Binghamton has a very decent opera company; Jake Gardner went to the Met from Bing, and the Met also routinely borrowed sets from our home base. I'm quite a fan - Puccini is my favorite (I'm such a drama queen!).<br /><br />Loved this, and thanks!
