My only previous opera experience in the former Eastern Europe was in Prague which really was second rate, so I was not expecting much in Budapest. However the quality of most of the singing was magnificent and unlike Russell I found the whole performance most moving. <BR/>Pity you don't like opera Russell, but then again I fall asleep if I'm ever forced to go to the ballet.<BR/>Just as a footnote, the Budapest Opera house interior is one of the finest I have seen.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
