Yes, finally, the right moment came about and I was able to have a friend take a picture of Placi et Moi! He is such a sweet man - as nice and charming as when we first met in 1993! (Mon Dieu!)
Reviews for "Cyrano" have all been stellar....and there is a rumour floating about that he may reprise it here in 2011. We will see......
I had to share with you all!
(Amanda, still having trouble trying to have the "shy" Monsieur Greathouse pose for me....but I will keep trying!
Love,
♥ Robin ♥

What a fascinating life you live,,,and fascinating people you live it with.
ReplyDeleteSeems you're in a very happy moment in time; I'm glad!
Hi!
ReplyDeleteIt's lovely to see your writeups about Cyrano and the photos. I've not seen such nice opera-related blogposts in a while! Placido is one of those aritsts who I love on so many levels, even though I feel really silly because I've never met him! For some reason he is the only artist who I somehow need to or want to know so much about. What is he like? You said he visited you, have you ever had any discussions with him? I often wonder whether he is a typical guy or if he is special in some way. He seems like a nice, tolerant, open-minded person, but I've always wondered whether that really is the case or if I'm just hoping and projecting...
In any case, thanks for the blog entries. I'm not sure what your line of work is, but being connected to the arts is always a wonderful thing, at least it seems so to me who is in a very dry financial profession that cannot be farther away from the world of the arts. I hope the rest of the Cyrano run goes well, and that all of you involved get as much enjoyment out of it as you possibly can!
P.S.: San Fran seems like a lovely city.
Well...looky at you ms sexy-come-hither!! Wonderful photo and such a treat to see. It is delightful to see this picture and yes...keep it for ever!!
ReplyDeleteLo, you are too sweet! It was the perfect moment to have our photo taken - so I did!
ReplyDeleteLove,
♥ Robin ♥
Amanda.... ah, so lovely - as always - to hear from you as you wind your way through Europa!!!!
ReplyDeleteSenor "P" is every bit as sweet and funny as he was in 1993.... I was thrilled to finally have a photo with him!
Trying for zee elusive one - Peter G - tonight!!! Ha-ha!
Looking forward to your next "installment"!
Love,
♥ Robin ♥
Suki... it was fun having the photo taken...thank goodness neither of us blinked....only took one shot - as there were several people there waiting to give him flowers and ask for autographs....
ReplyDeleteLove,
♥ Robin ♥
Cris.... I may have it framed.... probably not signed.... years ago, I did have him a sign a photo of himself as "Parsifal" a press photo I got in Bayreuth, Germany. It's enough for me.....plus nice to know he remembered me - by name - after all this time.
ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful Halloween weekend!
Love,
♥ Robin ♥
Lori... it is always wonderful to see you visiting here! And, to celebrate HAPPY events....your anniversary and my birthday - on the same day! WUNDERBAR!
ReplyDeleteI have had a great birthday week - full of surprises from loving friends!!! Most of all - as you know - is the love that's generated "out in our blogging world".... it has really helped me feel not alone and cared about.... I feel so blessed.
Love,
♥ Robin ♥
"KJB".... you crack me up!!!!! yes....at 69, he can still use a sword and fall convincingly to the ground.... and the voice - tres magnificique!!!
ReplyDeleteMUWAH!
♥ Robin ♥
Liebe "M"..... it was lovely having that birthday call from you!
ReplyDeleteMonsieur P is a real gentleman....and intelligent, funny and nice to be around...he's a rareity in the world of opera...and I hope he continues to be a part of it for many years!
HAPPY HALLOWEEN to you, and all the Family - including "Der Wunderkind" und.....Sjimmie - the REAL Halloween Cat!!!! Meow!
Liebe Grusse,
♥ Robin ♥
Ann, hello to you. Thank you for your kind comment. Everything you have ever read about Placido is true. He is warm, has a great sense of humour - is extremely humble (really) and LIVES for Music and Opera. It is what makes him who he is - and I know that when he finally stops singing - he will continue conducting and directing. He is a "one-of-a-kind" and I feel honoured to have met him and consider me as more than a fan.
ReplyDeleteI hope you have the opportunity to meet him too!
Hugs,
♥ Robin ♥
p.s. Yes, San Francisco IS a gorgeous city... hope you can visit it too!
Mim.... ha-ha....you made me laugh!
ReplyDeleteI guess I DO look different than I did in my cooking-stained apron at YART!!! But both events were wonderful times this October!
Love,
♥ Robin ♥
Babs...hello! Thank you for visiting.... my life really isn't this exciting all 52 weeks a year....but when it's Opera Season, it's great fun..and when you have a major star in town, even more so.
ReplyDeleteI love the quieter moments too....walking in the forest, looking at the night sky or a beautiful sunrise. Yes, I am in a much better place than when I began this blog in March.
It's because of the wonderful Renee (who still inspires me) - and because of all of YOU...loving friends from all round the world who have taken me into their hearts and helped me find strength to begin "living" again!
Hugs,
♥ Robin ♥
What a rush huh? Love it. Happy for you to get your photo op!
ReplyDeleteKJ is right!!! you actually look like a movie star Robin. Oooer missus (very english saying!) you both look super swish here.
ReplyDeleteRobin, thank you so much for the loving support over the last little while. It so often amazes me that there are so many kind souls in the world. Leaning on others does not sit right with me yet ... but I'm learning. Thank you.
Big huge hug to you. And sorry to have missed your birthday. So glad this one was so much better than last year! xx Jos
What a fabulous photo! Forget about Domingo. You look marvelous, daaaling!!
