Did anyone see the telecast of 'La Rondine' on PBS?  I saw it for the
first time last night (it might have been shown several times already),
on Great Performances, and *really* enjoyed it.  NYCO staged the most
romantic love scenes I've ever seen!  They didn't forget to act while 
they were singing!  Now, here is my question: does anyone know anything
about Jon Garrison?  While I enjoy listening to operas, I'm not knowledgable
on the subject and have not been a faithful follower of the PBS telecasts.
By the way, Jon Garrison played Ruggero in 'La Rondine'.  He looked very
young, so he should have many years to develop into a great tenor (I have
to admit, I was much more taken by his acting than his singing).  If you
know something about him, send me mail (or postnews if you wish).  Thanks.
