 ===== Aida =====
-Grand Opera done by the Sarasota Opera House!  Wow, what a spectacle.  They did a fantastic job with the production.  All the singers were up to the task.  Amneris, a Mezzo who has sung at the Met, was especially powerful and good.  Bill and Barb jjoined us for the evening.  We had pizza beforehand on the sidewalk at a little Italian place on Main Street.  Three intermissions made it a long night which started at 7:30 and went until 11:15. \\

 In order to get a large number of singers on stage they made the sets 2 levels which was effective with one choir up above and a second below.  We were also treated to 4 very capable ballerinas who did 3 ballet dance numbers which were a nice addition to te spectacle.  The short white linen skirts did a nice job of paying homage to Egypt, the place of the Opera. Outstanding! Can't wait till next year.\\
