...asked, she answered: On vacation in Santo Domingo over spring break, they were in a paddleboat and Martin was shooting pictures. When he ran out of film, he asked Perez to hand him a new canister from her bag. When she reached in, the canister was strangely heavy--with a ring...
...hard to find--it airs at odd hours, mostly on PBS or public access cable channels--but the search yields a feast. Opera, dance, chamber music, theater and more are presented in a beguiling spread of video clips. So surf that dial, comb that TV Guide. Caruso and Domingo, Lillian Gish and Paul Robeson, the Canadian Brass and James Galway all await...
...first two tenors, but so far they have had about as much luck as Joan Rivers had in giving Johnny Carson the push. Roberto Alagna, 34, was heavily promoted by EMI as "the tenor of our generation" (a not so subtle dig at the advanced ages of Pavarotti and Domingo), but he had a rocky Met debut three seasons ago and is looking increasingly like an also-ran.

Ask Joseph Volpe, the Met's general manager, what he is planning to do when Pavarotti and Domingo are no longer available to open the season, and the first name he mentions is that of Welsh bass-baritone Bryn Terfel. "At some point," he confides, "we're going to open with a Don Giovanni starring Bryn." No, Terfel can't sing a high C, but Volpe is betting that won't matter. "Bryn's the one who has all of the goods," he says...
