"This is the violet hour, the hour of hush and wonder, when the affectations glow and valor is reborn, when the shadows deepen along the edge of the forest and we believe that, if we watch carefully, at any moment we may see the unicorn."

2011.....Here We Go!



You KNEW I had to something musical for my first post of 2011.....  and what better than to combine song and dance!  The Opera House: the gorgeous La Fenice (in Venice), the singers: Daniel Harding, Desiree Rancatore, Luca Pisaroni.  The dancers: La Fenice's ballet - and the "Ninja Dancers"!  The music: Verdi's famous "Libiamo"!

Love,

♥ Robin ♥
