Saw the semi-staging at Benaroya tonight and it's pure Bartok. I am amazed that an opera with just tw0 characters worked so well. If Pinter wrote opera ... no, Pinter isn't quite good enough to have staged such a fascinating story even if his stories can be as overwrought. It's surprisingly accessible music ... for Bartok, though the hall was anything but packed.
But I don't feel like blogging about this so much since I am about to embark on a sturdy journey through a commentary on Jude and maybe muster up the nerve to read 1-5 Enoch THIS weekend.
