Wonder of wonders - a 5th row center seat for Lohengrin, flown in from Helsinki, as part of the 42 annual HK Arts Festival. I've now been to 23 of the 42 festivals, taking in opera each year. The production was superb, although the cast, dressed in white for much of the second and third acts, could be culturally confusing to the Asia audience used to white as the color of death and mourning, rather than for a wedding celebration.
Tonight is an 'opera gala' for symphony and vocalists performing all those hit arias that one likes to go home humming.
And next week it is time for a totally new mind set on Friday night as I go to the HK Rugy 7s for the first time in 20 years......
Life is nice.....and then there are tax returns to do.........such is life......
