Yes, Len, thanks! YN-S is one of the finest musicians working today. I was quite impressed when he took on Rusalka with Fleming & Beczala, and his Carmen was superb, of course. He's consistently good in orchestral repertoire, including both Bruckner and Mahler, a rare feat. I do hope he can get past the toxic atmosphere at the MET and allow that institution to recover from Levine's alleged misdeeds. At any rate, he makes great music happen consistently, and for that I'm grateful!
