Alban Berg and Loving Life
I was driving getting some errands done yesterday listening to the MetOpera channel on XM (satelite radio is but one of the perks of the new car) and the last scene of Wozzeck comes on (I think the ‘84 version at the Met).
Dork that I am, I nearly stroke out while driving I’m so excited. Really, how many times does a Berg opera come on the radio? I was smiling and humming along (to serial music…heee) and then thought to myself, “How many people are changing the channel right now?” It was a ammusing thought to picture tens of thousands of opera fans simultaneously changing the station.
Anyway, if this doesn’t give me serious dork cred, I don’t know what does. I was so happy and excited, I even took a picture of the radio console.
