A week in Tokyo: Day 5
Here’s a Catch 22 that struck me as I awaited curtain up last night. If I were a conductor, assigned Verdi’s Otello , I’d want to sneak into the pit and launch the opera without any warning (the music just seems to dictate it), but, here’s the catch: if I were a conductor, assigned Verdi’s Otello, my ego would be such that I’d rather die than forego my applause.
