Hoveida, an orchid fancier who once wore a fresh blossom daily in his lapel, apologized to the court for his disheveled appearance, adding quietly, "But of course it wouldn't have made any difference...

Other characters sing of their dreams. By eliminating intermission breaks Ponnelle keeps his own vision flying. He also makes a point: it was time for the Met to present an example of the most exciting, if divisive, opera productions now being staged...
