Drifting along the timeless Seine River, a Parisian symphony unfolds. Iconic landmarks paint the skyline as the sun dips below, casting a golden glow on the Eiffel Tower and Notre-Dame. A Seine River cruise is a romantic voyage through the heart of Paris, where history and beauty intertwine

Character ask: Tamino (The Magic Flute)

No one sent me this ask, I just felt like writing it.

@ariel-seagull-wings, @leporellian

Favorite thing about them: His love for Pamina and the beauty, warmth, and ardor of the music with which he expresses it. I also like productions that make him less of a stalwart paragon and highlight his youthful naiveté and coming-of-age journey.

Least favorite thing about them: The degree of cold sternness he gains as a follower of Sarastro in Act II, of which poor Pamina and Papageno are on the receiving end. Also (and relatedly), his parroting the priests' misogyny in the Act II quintet with Papageno and the Three Ladies.

Three things I have in common with them:

*I can be passionate and hot-blooded.

*I tend to be very trusting.

*I sometimes blindly follow other people's instructions.

Three things I don't have in common with them:

*I'm not royalty.

*Where courage is concerned, I'm more like Papageno.

*I'm female and I don't consider "manhood" an ideal.

Favorite line: The text of "Dies Bildni ist bezauberndt schön."

brOTP: Sarastro and his priests; maybe Papageno too, but only in productions that let him be warmer toward him and less aloof and impatient than he sometimes comes across.

OTP: Pamina.

nOTP: The Queen of the Night.

Random headcanon: When he eventually rules as a "wise monarch" (whether as Sarastro's successor, or of his own father's empire, or however you think it will happen), Pamina will be his equal partner and co-ruler, but her role will chiefly be spiritual and philosophical leadership, while Tamino's will be worldly/political leadership. In effect, they'll both be heirs to Sarastro, but Tamino will embody the "king" aspect of Sarastro's style of ruling, while Pamina embodies the "priest" aspect.

Unpopular opinion: I'm not sure if this is unpopular, but... If the tenor in the role stands like a statue during Pamina's "Ach, ich fühl's," without conveying through facial expressions and body language that Pamina's anguish is breaking his heart, and if he does nothing to express his pain and remorse after she leaves (e.g. starting to run after her only to sadly restrain himself, collapsing to the floor, and/or breaking down in tears), he had better have a magnificent voice, or else he doesn't belong on the stage.

Song I associate with them:

"Dies Bildnis ist bezauberndt schön"

"Wie stark ist nicht dein Zauberton"

Favorite picture of them:

Georg Maikl, early 20th century.

Fritz Wunderlich, 1960s.

Josef Köstlinger, Ingmar Bergman film, 1975.

Unknown tenor (I just love how innocent and happy he looks, and I love the elegant animal costumes).

Michael Schade with Andrea Rost as Pamina, LA Opera, 2002.

Joshua Kohl, Sarasota Opera, 2010.

John Tessier, Seattle Opera, 2011.

Mhlekazi Andy Mosiea in the production by South Africa's Isango Ensemble, 2014.

Alek Shrader, Metropolitan Opera, 2014.

Pasqual Charbonneau, Opéra de Québec, 2018.

Fictional Character Ask: Mercedes and Frasquita??

Carmen's two companions

Favorite thing about them: Well, they're lively and likable characters, and I like that they're true friends to Carmen, who never view her as a rival despite her allure and popularity with men, and who try (however vainly) to protect her from Don José.

Least favorite thing about them: That they can be viewed as negative stereotypes of Romani women, being involved in crime and using their sexuality to aid the smugglers.

Three things I have in common with them:

*I enjoy dancing and singing.

*I sometimes read oracle cards.

*I would love to find romance and/or be rich someday.

Three things I don't have in common with them:

*I'm not involved in smuggling.

*I'm not nearly as confident in my charms and allure as they are.

*Unlike Frasquita, I would never marry an elderly man for his money.

Favorite line: Their passages in the Card Trio.

brOTP: Each other and Carmen.

OTP: The famous captain and the rich old man whom the cards foretell for them in the future.

nOTP: Don José. He's wrong for Carmen and would have been wrong for them too.

Random headcanon: The happy futures the cards foretell for them will come true. Mercédès will have her thrilling romance and Frasquita will have her fabulous wealth. I know there's reason to doubt it, and I've read the argument that they don't even believe it themselves and are just joking together in the card scene, with only Carmen really believing her destiny. But I want the best for them, so I'll have faith that the cards really do never lie.

Unpopular opinion: I wish more productions would bring them back onstage at the end to react to Carmen's murder. In fact, instead of ending with Don José grieving over Carmen's body, I wish more productions would end with them grieving over her body while José is arrested. So far I've only seen two productions do this, the 1984 Francesco Rosi film and the Isango Ensemble's South African-flavored production. But I remember reading somewhere (I wish I remembered where) that the first draft of the libretto ended this way. I wish that staging would be brought back more often. Enough of ending with "Poor José, he killed the one he loved!" Let Carmen be mourned by the friends who really loved her for who she was, not just by the man who killed her for refusing to be the fantasy he was obsessed with!

Song I associate with them:

"Nous avons en tête une affaire"

"Melons! Coupons!" (The Card Trio)

Favorite pictures of them:

I don't know who any of these singers are, but I like the pictures.

One Day Trip to Beijing

Baek Minjeong

During this season, sunshine and warm breeze start to tickle our hearts. At this time of year, we can easily find someone who is desperate for a walk in a peaceful atmosphere and nature. This is especially true for those who have not been able to travel genuinely during the pandemic situation. Can you believe there is a beautiful lake in the middle of the city surrounded by long trails? It would be a perfect venue to relax and enjoy this season.

(Sources: Free Walking Tours)

Summer Palace was the summer vacation spot of Queen Seo of the Qing Dynasty. This is a huge palace with a lake and garden, including Wanshou Hill and Kunming Lake. In the middle of Beijing City, you can enjoy the nature of these beautiful lakes and mountains. You may think it's very hard to take a walk around a huge lake, but you don't have to worry about it.

(Sources: Mywowo)

Long Corridor, a promenade in the Summer Palace, has a roof that blocks rain and sunlight along the corridor, so you can enjoy nature for a long time regardless of the weather. The beautiful patterns and paintings on the roofs and beams are also worth appreciating in themselves.

(Sources: Isango)

In addition, there are many large and small temples around the Summer Palace, so you can stop there and enjoy the scenery for a while and spend time taking pictures. You can take pictures wearing the royal costumes of the Qing Dynasty at one of the temples.

(Sources: Daum) Summer Palace, which combines antique buildings and magnificent nature, is a place with a wide and diverse appearance not to be able to examine every part within a day. Walking a lot and taking pictures, you must get hungry now. Then you can move to the restaurant in the city center.

(Sources: Google map) <Village of Xibei-myeon>

(Sources: South China Morning Post) <The Summer Palace Wharf Restaurant>

(Sources: Baidu) <Yunguge Coffee> There are many kinds of restaurants and cafes around the Summer Palace. It would be good to choose one of the various restaurants from fast food to Chinese food, and then go back to a cafe with a view of the lake to have a cup of coffee and relax.

Why don't you spend a day at the Summer Palace, a symbol of peace and relaxation in Beijing, one of the largest and most complex cities in the world, to comfort yourself and recharge yourself in your busy daily life? The precious time when your body and mind are relaxed will stay in your memory for a long time and be a strength to live hard every day again.
