I thought the Nehru-suits that Plácido and Bryn wore were rather fetching!
I didn't actually go Backstage, just hung around the Stage Doors at both venues...

I haven't succeed to get tickets for this performance, and I really regret now not to have try the queue- but I thought then that arriving from Paris the same morning was too risky. I am very happy for all of you, English Placido fans, that this series of Walkyries went so well for him !
