building interior certainly was magnificent.
I did manage to attend part of "The Ring" with a wildly enthusiastic and well-dressed audience. The solemn old gentlemen next to me was curt before the performance; during the first intermission, he couldn't shut up he was so happy. Different culture, different behavior. I attended several other performances, including one featuring a smaller group of musicians from the Vienna Phil in a strange venue with an open ceiling and seating all around it, looking down on the musicians.
