I did not care for the new staging of Lulu, but I am happy that you and many others did, for it drew them to one of the great operas in the repertory. I caught the very last performance in the house and was thrilled to see the Met filled and well-sold for a change. The women in the cast (Petersen, Graham, DeShong) were all superb, while the men seemed less able to project voice and personality. With Lulu and Tannhauser well served, this fall was very rewarding at the Met.
