On Saturday I took Andrea on a date. It was horribly romantic. Ok not really but I can pretend right? Anyway. We went to Rigoletto up in Salt Lake. It was AMAZING!!! I thought I knew the plot from the other Rigoletto I had seen but it was entirely different and super intriguing. I love the opera. It was so beautiful. It was in Italian of course. I thought the tenor was amazing but then the soprano came out. I can't decide who I loved more, the soprano or the bass. The soprano sang more but the bass had such a presence! He was playing the part of a hit man and he did it so so well. The soprano was the daughter of the main character and she would be crumpled up on the floor singing like an angel 3 octaves above what most people could dream of.
Look it up. Read it and if you can, go to the opera. I pinkie promise you won"t regret it.
