Dream plays: if you were producing a new opera recording, what would it be?
CORNELIA IREDELL: I'm still flogging the dead horse of a new Levine-led recording of Barber's Vanessa: Renee Fleming as Vanessa, with Susan Graham, Ian Bostridge and, as the Old Doctor, James Morris--and Rosalind Elias coming back as the grandmother after her many years as Erika.
JOANNE SYDNEY LESSNER: There's a double bill that would fit on one CD and be relatively inexpensive to record, because you need only two singers: Menotti's The Telephone and Poulenc's La Voix Humaine.
