Dear Karen et all,

In that vein I have a question for you Karen, and anyone else out there that may be able to answer it.

My voice teacher seems to think that there is a Tenor version of FALSTAFF. Is there? Or does Falstaff appear in another Opera but sung by a Tenor?

(And this specifically to you Karen. I have not forgotten your translation. My sister-in-law had trouble with it as per the reasons that I emailed you and has consulted a friend and has given it to her to translate for her. I will ask her about it tonight when she gets home from work. I don't
know if she has gotten back to her friend or not about it, but she also had a family crisis with her sister and got side tracked due to that.

So thank you to anyone who asnwers my quiery.
