Surprise Visit of Cecilia Bartoli
Just before the
concert of August 8, world famous Mezzo, Cecilia Bartoli suddenly shown up the dressing
room of Adam Fischer. She sang "Cenerentola" conducted by Adam at Zürich
Opera few years ago and both respect each other. This March, they will perform
the new production of "Nina".
Cecilia's visit with her family and manager was a wonderful surprise for Adam
Fischer. They enjoyed the conversation in Italian. Meeting at the Italian restaurant
near Lincoln Center after the performance, they discussed a lot about "Nina" as
well as the concert of Haydntage scheduled September 19, 1998. In fact, Bartoli is
the admirer of Adam's Gulyas soup and he himself cooked for her several times. There
might be the "gulyas party" with Cecilia Bartoli in Eisenstadt.
