The Met has had a rough time with producing ML. The most recent 2016 version was panned in The Times via a German reset. I saw the 1949 production with Price, around 1980, that was threadbare at best and not worth reviving as the oldest Met version. .

"If you liked it, then it was good."

Isn't that the Duke Ellington line? Or I guess the way he put it was: "If it sounds good, it _is_ good"

The Met rebroadcast their lightning speed ERNANI with Price and Bergonzi on Sat from 1962, sung with wild abandon and Schippers conducting.

Price turned 97 as well.
