High Caliber Culture
We have the perfect solution for those worried over global warming and also for those worried about an opera on global warming. Teddy Tahu Rhodes sings “Non piú andrai”
replete with martini. The martini is chilled (hopefully) to ward off rising temperatures, and the opera is likely better than what’s in store for La Scala 2011.
Have one. And if you’re worried about both issues, global warming and opera, then have two. Mozart would approve, I’m sure.

Professor Carol now offers a complete self-study course covering 300 years of music.
This romp through music history (and many other historical topics) combines 13 hours of DVD video with a 3-disc listening set from Naxos and a 236-page course book.
From the birth of opera to the Leipzig coffeehouses frequented by Bach and Schumann, from the Orthodox cathedrals of Moscow to Tin Pan Alley, from scientific discoveries to bloody revolutions, spooky dramas and shoe styles, Carol chronicles it all with her unique commentary.
