上一期专栏中,我原本打算畅谈最近的西班牙之旅,但落笔不久就偏了题,聊起了那次多年前造访西班牙的经历。我发誓,这一次不会再犯同样的错,将会回到在马德里所看演出的主题上。可是,让我先说说另一件事。几年前,我在纽约曼哈顿参加了一场高级别的私人晚宴——主人家预先公布了宾客的名单,好让你事先做足社交的准备。那一列名字里包括几位行内素未谋面、但声名响当当的人物。那天,我坐在了著名歌剧策划人杰拉德·莫迪埃(Gerard Mortier)身旁。
In my last column, I had intended to talk about the recent trip to Spain, but shortly after I finished my interview, I talked about the experience of my visit to Spain many years ago. I swear, this time will not make the same mistake, will return to the theme of the show in Madrid. But let me talk about another thing first. A few years ago, I attended a high-level private dinner in Manhattan, New York - the host family announced in advance the list of guests, so that you get prepared for social preparation. That list includes several names in the line has never met, but the fame of the characters. That day, I sat beside the famous opera curator Gerard Mortier.
