Francesca Zambello Quotes

«Working with Placido Domingo, we have coined the term 'American Ring,' and the designers and I are using American history, mythology, iconography and landscape to set the operas.»
«We are creating a world in some ways familiar to our audience but also one that will feel very mythic as we look to our country's rich imagery.»
«That was the first time there was this incredible media hype around a murder. Was it murder? Was it an accident? Everyone knew he was a boy trying to better himself. And everyone knew there was a wealthy girl involved.»
«The character, a poor factory girl, would have something much smaller, much simpler.»
«It seemed to me that so much of America's myth, stories, visions and iconographic images are in many ways parallel to the Ring.»
«What's with the Raggedy Ann on the bed? That's terrible!»
«When Placido wanted to do it (the Ring) I was very excited to do it here. So many of the stories in the Ring are also right here - stories about power, greed, about society, respect for the environment, all hot issues of our time which are in the Ring and also right here, in the seat of American and in some sense global power.»
