So here's the boxers-or-briefs situation: there's the Fidelio at Carnegie Hall, with Deborah Voigt and Co., in the annual Collegiate Chorale thing (collegiate is always a happy word for me); then, the Don Carlo season premiere at the Met, which I had greeted with*u-huh ok* before they crossed out Barbara Frittoli and scribbled in Sondra Radvanovsky under Elisabetta.The same evening.
Good news is, there's a way to attend both things. I know it's been done before. I've been told. Paging Lois Kirschenbaum ....
