Edit: Blimey, I thought a moment ago there was a post from Flay about "as it is" and I put that into google + Down and it came up with "When memory is bewildered, intelligence is lost, and when intelligence is lost one falls down again into the material pool"

Eugens d'Albert & Jochum
Eugene Onegin

d'Albert - Glaswegian born pianist and composer of opera Der Golem which is about I'm not sure what except it involves a rabbi and an emperor
Jochum - conductor Concertgebouw, LPO, LSO (and others ?)
Onegin - not sure of his frustrations - unable to love?Last edited by mercia; 21-04-12, 17:57.Comment

Perhaps the only extra detail required is that The Golem is one of Glasgow-born Eugen (né Eugene) d'Albert's operas.
Please will you follow up with an f-word?

Met synopsis:Originally posted by mercia View Post
ACT III. Several years later, a magnificent ball is being given in the Gremin Palace in St. Petersburg. Onegin appears, reflecting bitterly on the fact that he has traveled the world seeking excitement and some meaning in life, and all his efforts have led him to yet another dull social event. ...
... Onegin repeats his love for her. Faltering for a moment, she admits that she still loves him, but she will not allow him to ruin her. She leaves him regretting his bitter destiny.
