✒️ Some think I married the prince because of his name. To them I say: listen to the way he talks about me when I'm not in the room, and tell me that you wouldn't love him as much as I do!

“She shines like a star
in the night‘s darkest hour, in a pure, clear sky,
and to me she always appears
in the radiant,
radiant nimbus of an angel!”

(Enjoy Bass Johannes Seokhoon Moon’s singing Prince Gremin’s aria!)

Goodbye Tatjana, it was nice to be you again!

Thank you everyone who made this so much fun, and congrats to everyone on a great last show of Eugen Onegin last night! I will miss this role! Until next time!!

✒️ Tanya Larina is no more. Do not grieve for the girl, nor for lost love. They will live on in memory, like the thought of a picture once seen, like music heard in passing, like fragrances of seasons past.

I am Tatyana Dmitrievna Gremina.

I am a woman made by men.

✒️ We moved to the capital. Everything here is new and exciting, but, oh! how I miss my home, the trees, the streams, the fields, the groves, the peace and quiet of my books! My poor old mother! She missed Olya's lively presence and used the intention to marry me off too as pretext to introduce me into “society”. I am paraded around, put on display. Who am I now?
Who do you want me to be?

✒️ Strangers call at our house to propose to me. So I hide on long walks, alone, and think. What really happened on my name day? What was Volodya‘s hurt why did he challenge the beloved friend! They were so alike, so kind, so understanding, more so than brothers could have been. Oh, if only I had never written that letter! Onegin would have danced with me, and Olga would now be Lensky's wife!

✒️ Is anything written down ever real truth?
The inscription calls Volodya's death “Gallantly.” Despicable, lying marble.

The moon invited me to your house, Yevgeny. I saw the marks and notes you left in the books you loved. Everything you seemed to be was there, every thought, every word, written by someone else. And who are you?

✒️ #LetTheSopranoLive ? But what is life without love, I ask? Heartbroken, betrayed and abandoned, she is left, doomed to go on in shame and regret, soon forgotten, without the audience's grief, without them mourning her tragic fate! 💔 #TanyaBlog

[The ratio of my character being alive or dead at the end of an #opera is 2:1 at my current house in #Darmstadt, and will remain that way in 2023/24! But I love a great death and to take it to the extreme, if the staging allows. — MMH]

✒️ Volodya is dead. Vladimir Lensky, my sister’s fiancé, my friend, my soul. Slain by a man he loved, and who loved him, and who I should no longer love. But Eugene is gone, his house is empty. Olga left with her new husband. I did not know her anymore. I’m alone.

✒️ I had the strangest dream. In the dream, a terrifying bear chases me through snow and woods, drags me to a fête of nightmares and monsters. He is there. The demons want to take me, but Eugene tells them I am his. Olga and Vladimir appear, he quarrels with them and slays Lensky with a knife!

Thinking of my ball makes me anxious. Will I see him again? Will he rescue me? Olya and Volodya’s wedding is soon …
