Puccini's Birthday

Find a classical music radio station in your town and LISTEN.

On WFTM in Chicago they're playing "Puccini's Best" and I'm in tears it's so beautiful. Just try it.

Now. If ANYONE has tickets to the Lyric Opera performance in Chicago on Feb 6 (or bet Jan 21-Feb 8) and you just can't go, LMK!
