The Metropolitan's new opera "Don Pasquale" is a brilliant achievement by set and costumes designer Wolfgang Roth, producer Dino Yannopoulos, singer Fernando Corena and music conductor Thomas Schippers. At a later performance of musician Boris Godunov, one point of interest was "Boris," which was sung more sensitively and more beautifully than London's, and also was more sensitively and impressively acted. In addition, the singer worked less hard at getting the English words across, so that one was spared a large number of them.
