attended the Royal Opera and watched the opera La Boheme tonight. She sat in the Royal box of course, but her boyfriend Daniel Westling wasn't allowed to so he sat in the box reserved for members of the court. This was a private visit and not official.
Our box is opposite the Royal Box but this was actually the first time any royal has been there while we have. My friend and I usually go once a month during season so this was rare. I'm happy to say that it looked like she enjoyed the opera and even shed a tear. I and C of course cried. Puccini was a genious in expressing strong, human emotions in his music I think.
Mimi was sung for the first time by Maria Fontosh and she did a wonderful Mimi.
The conductor was Pier Giorgio Morandi whom we have seen before conducting Il Trovatore. He's so gifted especially when it comes to Italian composers.
This was a wonderful evening and now I'm home still filled with that wonderful music and are taking that with me when I go to bed. So here's to sweet dreams and wonderful music. Good night
