Where the Wilde things are

via [livejournal.com profile] oursin When you see this, quote Oscar Wilde:

Ah! J'ai baisé ta bouche, Iokaanan, J'ai baisé ta bouche.

Oh, that sounds fab. I've not read it in French (and suspect I couldn't, now). But I've always thought it amazing drama.

I love the Strauss opera. The ROH production with Maria Ewing is particularly spectacular.

Maria Ewing has made quite a Salome over the years. Rare that an opera singer will disrobe onstage. I remember the shock of that in LA (around 1989 I think) big news, sold many, many tickets. Luckily she can back it up with an amazing singing voice.

Which in most cases is a great mercy. I can think of one or two though that can get naked for me anytime.
