will be listening to berenice ( FINALLY ) as soon as i get this downloader thing to work, but i just want to write down the opinions i formed from reading the libretto ( and hearing a few excerpts too, i suppose )
problematic disaster bi bernie. sheās like grimoaldo, but girl and main character.
bernie and selene, tollie and sandro. history repeats itself. you know, i wonder what bernieās mother and uncle are doing at this point in time.
speaking of guys named sandro, i think we need to make alessandro berenicereginadegitto into ragù
arsace. arsace.
the fact that all my thoughts about arsace could very well also apply to any ( both ) of the other arsaces ( arsaci? ) iāve encountered on my journeys through the world of italian-language opera.
i have nothing to say about demetrio⦠iām sorry baby boy, iām sure youāre baby ;-;
i think now would be a good time to say that i once had a dream where i watched berenice for the first time, but there was an extra character in both the prod i watched and the libretto itself, some ākatsoā dude. they got ran over by alessandro and alessandro sung an aria about how proud he was of running the guy over. also the language used in the aria was incorrect ( used the verb āarrestareā where it shouldāve been āinvestareā ) and thinking of that led me to actually make that mix-up in real life. my point about alessandro ragù stands.
