And then we have, in brief, an all star season
*the Ring (four cycles) with Bryn Terfel leading the hostilities
*Leo Nucci and Placido Domingo share the title role in Nabucco
*Kaufmann/Harteros/Kwiecen/Furlanetto in Don Carlo (o-la-laaa... if you saw the online broadcast from Bayerische Staatsoper earlier in Januar, then this is one of the not-to-be-missed productions)
*JDF & JDD in La donna del lago (HINT: this one and Don Carlo run at the same time)
* Meyerbeer, rarely performed these days
*Thomas Hampson as Simon Boccanegra
*Renee Fleming in Capricio
