Nabucco

Schon interessant, mit wem man einzelne Figuren assoziierte: Abigaille mit dem zwanzig Jahre lang verbotenen sowjetischen Film Die Kommissarin, Ismaele glich Willy Loman aus Arthur Millers Tod eines Handlungsreisenden, und bei König Nabucco und seinem Wahn mußte man unweigerlich an Dr. Caligari denken.

    Is this a very bloody movie?

    Well, maybe the references to other movies has led you astray, it was an opera. But your assumption was quite right: It tells the Biblical Story of the Jewish exile in Babylon, so at least the decor of act I was unusually bloody. Though it was a great event, especially because I attended the performance with my friends Jörg and Francis from Düsseldorf. It took place in the Aalto Theater in Essen, designed by the famous Finnish architect Alvar Aalto (http://is.gd/golube). I have sent a postcard from there to myself, but I'm wondering why it has not arrived yet...

    Yes, the translation was a bit hard to understand. It is strange that the postcard has not arrived yet. That happens here too. Sometimes I send mail to my mother, who only lives 50 miles away, and it takes a week or more to get there.
