Carmina Burana review

I’ve got a couple of humorous links for you today. First, here’s a review of the opera Carmina Burana, which was performed at the MCI Center last week. Tim Page’s write up is hilarious. For example, because the MCI Center is a basketball arena and not a concert hall, “the MCI loudspeakers made it sound as though ‘Carmina Burana’ were being played through the world’s largest cell phone.” Second, here’s a modern interpretation of Who’s On First?. That’s pretty good too, thanks to Jeremy Blachman for the link.
