Unbelievable that this is Emily Margevich’s first Tosca, because she was born to play this role. Hers has to be one of the top two performances I’ve seen this year. 💃🗡️🩸🎶🎼🎵

Day 7 of #avventuretoscane : morning walkabout and shopping in #pienza , then lunch at #13gobbi in #montefollonico , walk to #bagnosanfilipo, and dinner at Osmosi.

Day 6 of #avventuretoscane : Assisi! Walked around the St. Francis basilica, including the crypt, and hiked all the way up to the Rocca Maggiore fortress! Strenuous, and worth it for the panoramic view of the valley.

Day 5 of #avventuretoscane featured a stop in #siena that involved #panini and #gelato and then an afternoon touring Antinori nel Chianti Classico and sampling some #umbriaigt #chianticlassicodocgriserva #chianticlassicodocggranselezione and #nobiledimontepulciano

Delicious experiences all around!
Day 4 of #avventuretoscane I made #pici , #pappardelle , and #tiramisu at Le Caggiole ! Resulted in some of the best #pasta I’ve ever had, plus excellent wine pairings. An unforgettable experience.

Day 3 of #avventuretoscane #montepulciano Another lovely panoramic view of the valley after climbing up Montepulciano! Other reward for the climb was a lovely lunch of pizza with sausage, mushroom, and truffle. Lots and lots of flavor.

Day 2 of #avventuretoscane featured a wine tasting at Podere le Ripi plus a cellar tour. I could feel the tension leaving my body just sitting on the patio and taking in the landscape.

My dear friend and colleague Faith Ellen McCandlish is hosting a fundraiser for Arlington Food Assistance Center THIS SATURDAY 10/11 in lieu of the Classical Open Mic, since we sadly had to cancel. The fundraiser will be at Walker Chapel United Methodist Church.
Loved attending Cherrydale United Methodist Church’s August concert, The Passion Within. Read my coverage at the link in the comments below. Bravi tutti!

TURN YOUR CELL PHONES OFF IN THEATERS.
Thank you to everyone who wished me well yesterday, especially my teachers and directors. The training really, REALLY kicked in.

And…I’ll be having whiskey tonight. 🥃
