I don't have time to fall back in love with Monteverdi right now, but golly, what I've seen of the 2017 Venice production so far of Il ritorno di Ulisse is fantastic (and on a completely irrelevant note, I would cast Lucile Richardot as Harriet Vane in a heartbeat were it up to looks and voice alone): https://youtu.be/Sstr12-IrjE

(My birthday present to myself this year was the Bahrenreiter edition of the opera. Relatedly, Rob at Yesterday Service Sheet Music in Somerville, MA, is a sweetheart, and y'all should consider ordering from him if you need your own copy of a classical something or other.)

You didn't miss it! You sent a beautiful card back in May that I had on my windowsill for months! (It just takes me forever to sit down properly with presents, especially if I suspect or know that they will yank hard at my heartstrings -- hello, Monteverdi -- or if I suspect I'll get sucked deep into a new series and/or fandom I don't quite have emotional or recreational space to accommodate just yet, which is why Discovery of Witches remains in the TBR pile. (She says, having come up with yet another spiky vignette for Fen/Pat/Archie/Daniel last night that she then has been brooding over while harvesting tomatoes and sterilizing jars, even though there are hundreds of endnotes to fix and LaTeX to learn by the middle of this week...))

I am relieved because I looked at my calendar and didn't see your name anywhere and was like _what have I been thinking?_

p.s. I really love LaTeX. teehee
