I recently received as a present Verdi’s Rigoletto, directed by Jean-Pierre Ponelle, and starring a great distribution: Luciano Pavarotti, Edita Gruberova, Ingvar Wixell. I think it was the one of the best presents I got in years, as I was looking for this DVD for a long time now.

All website members will share […]

This is the place to be if you want to read a few words about me. My name is Mihai Pasca and I am from Romania.
I usually use MPhk as a nickname on the Web (and sometimes even in real life). This nickname represents just an alternate spelling of my name. On the other side, […]
