The problem is what counts as 'the same'.
"Casta diva", as sung by Callas. Is it the same as sung by Sutherland?
And so on?
I'm sure Geary and McEvoy can think of further subtle musicological
differences that Yost's approach leaves untouched.
Which is to say that you can't step to the same tune twice, so you
have to try to be in tune with one another despite the fact that she
likes Carol King and he can't stand her, and partner x has two left
feet and partner y has three?
Good wishes to Donal btw. Orxford chaps can be amazingly
clueless...which is so unlike the rest of us!
