AND, he's really a nice guy! I've had the good fortune to visit Al's gallery in Santa Fe and meet meet personally. And, we e-mail and talk often over the phone. The pots in the video are beautiful; I only wish I could be in Santa Fe for the opening. Good luck with the show Al, and thanks for getting this one of a kind display together. It does a great service to the pots, the artists, pueblo traditions and the collecting community. If there's a book or catalog for it, I'd love to purchase a copy.<br />Best and with respect,<br />Barry Palevitz, Athens GAAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10687972968367688081noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8138552127159076139.post-34702886472808521122010-08-01T23:36:49.201-07:002010-08-01T23:36:49.201-07:00The new "Albert Herring" at the Santa Fe...The new "Albert Herring" at the Santa Fe Opera, is, in my honest and unattached to SFO opinion, the best production of the 2010 season. Is that not more believable than a member of the company saying that? Actually, a company member wouldn't dare to say that openly and with his or her name attached, because it would be denegrating all the other productions. I am a former teacher, who always took his students to cultural events every term and prepared them in class for whatever we were attending, but I believe in total honesty and openess. Thanks for leaving my previous post untouched and unedited. Go to "Albert Herring" = you won't regret it. BTW, I won free tickets on the radio, so I "only" supported the arts in question by my presence, not my $$$.papagenohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01876368821777907784noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8138552127159076139.post-33372984075610756972010-08-01T21:24:26.206-07:002010-08-01T21:24:26.206-07:00Papageno--I have no idea if SantaFeRed is CR's...Papageno--I have no idea if SantaFeRed is CR's alter-ego, but what I do know is that anyone who is positive about the arts is great in my book--objective or otherwise. We are losing audiences because old rich people are dying off (and luckily some of the pretentious ones!) and young people aren't being exposed to the arts in school because of budget cuts. We need positive arts promotion to get butts in seats as Mamet would say. Not only am I an artist, I am a publicist by trade. I only promote things I believe in, and perhaps he is doing the same thing. There is much gray area in terms of how objective social media can be. Oftentimes, I write about artists who happen to be friends, too, because I really believe in what they are doing and want to help them succeed--the same with strangers. You are, however, entitled to your opinion in this forum. Just remember, though, we're talking about opera here, not the BP oil crisis or Sarah Palin's policy on Lee press-on nails.

Kudos to the Santa Fe Opera for the many premieres we have enjoyed. Much as we love the traditional repertoire, it is great to be inspired by something new.
