I've never been there, but I hear the outdoor opera house is just amazing. Plus they have an amazingly innovative marketing team which has been the envy of opera companies for years. They were the first opera company in the US to offer supertitles in Spanish (along with other premiums) to penetrate the large Latino market in their area...and it worked.

Ooops. My apologies, Milo. I forgot you would be able to confirm the prominence of the Santa Fe Opera, too. Meryl came first to mind, and I didn't stop to think further. Mea culpa.  :(

I hope they present it in San Francisco.  SF also has one of the best opera companies in the world.  And the beautiful city by the bay even held a "Brokeback Mountain Day" shortly after the movie aired.

New Mexico magazine, produced by the state highway department, routinely runs an article "One of the 50 is Missing" which quotes from other sources instances in which the author doesn't realize that New Mexico is a state. It goes back so far that the recurring feature was once called "One of the 48 is Missing"!  :D
