...Metropolitan Opera likes to keep one or two operettas in its repertory, if only for purposes of New Year's Eve entertainment. In the past, Manager Rudolf Bing has done well with Strauss's Die Fledermaus and Offenbach's La Péri-chole. Last week the Met unveiled a dazzling production of another Strauss operetta, The Gypsy Baron.

One believes that Valentina Telegina (who looks, incidentally, like a peasant mother symbol) is an uncomplicated woman devoted to her family and not bothered by the "greater things" taking place around...
