"LA ULTIMA..........que rie, rie mejor."
Bravissima, Cheryl Studer.  Very beautifully, exquisitely and 
distinguishedly done. A most wonderful, exemplary, and unforgettable
legacy.  Thank you, Studer.  Thank you for dedication and seriousness.
And for High Individuality.
And thank you too, Universal, EMI and Sony, for having had the
foreskin to recognize and capture genius in our midst (now that these
dinosaurs' [delusional] populist causes, causes palatable to the
Anglocentric and their Best Friends, have caused them to
trim...ouch!...their future...for that squeaky clean look and
sound...and potent-ial self-extinction).
