Home!
What a sweet word is “home”. Chicago was wonderful, and I loved being there, but it’s good to back with my sweet kitty and to be able to sleep in my own bed tonight.
For the record, I was up at 5:20 AM (CDT), at O’Hare by 6:10 AM, on a plane bound for Atlanta at 8 AM, in Atlanta at 11 AM (EDT) waiting another five before getting on a plane bound for Gainesville at almost 5 PM. Arrived home at 6 PM.

UT,
Obviously I am as big a Milnes fan as there is, but any lover of the baritone voice, Milnes included, would acknowledge Leonard Warren’s status as the greatest of all. Unfortunately, there is no recording of him singing the Prologue in modern sound, but if you search online you might an find an MP3 of a live performance from the Met where his high A-flat and subsequent G are not to be believed. Still, Milnes had it down, and his RCA recording is great–though the singers in the other parts and the conductor aren’t my favorites–and you can even see him in this YouTube video: http://youtube.com/watch?v=ksFGtLcjMDg
