rock concert

They are setting up for a rock concert across the plaza from where I am...they have lots of people come here in the summer...Crosby stills and nash, James brown...all very interesting.

Just a note...I don't know if anyone was planning on visiting me...for those of you in Europe, but you probably ought to tell me when you would like to come so that I caN MAKE PLANS FOR THAT ETC.

I am singing the part of SUsanna in a duet from le nozze di figaro Mozart of course, and the part of Bianca from La Rondine by Puccini. things are very warm here. I have alot of music to learn. I tried to running this morning, but I was still too sleepy and it was already quite warm.

I have started hanging out quite a bunch with people from chicago...Roosevelt and Northwestern. It always strikes me as so strange that singers in Music programs don't have to take any real classes, I approve of real classes. I saw my voice teacher as I was riding around today, I chatted with himn for quite a bit.

Next weekend lots of people are going on the trip with the Program to Bologna, I havn't decided what I am doing yet. I might try to see Floriana and MArco since they asked me to visit.

Hi Em,
I am glad that everything is going along swimingly, except for the heat of course. I just purchased my plane ticket to Japan, and it's starting to feel more real that I am actually going.

I saw a modern version of Marriage of Figaro this past year, well the music was the same, which was preformed very well, except I didn't quite appriciate the modern twist on the wardrobe and set. I am certain that you will portray susanna superbly.

Mom, says hi and that you should ride a vespa for her. We might have to move and if it's closer to her work she is thinking about getting one to commute on nicer days. Can you imagine my mother on a Vespa?

Can't wait to see you again in August! Love you much!

Sarah
