A BURNING QUESTION
Sir-As a constant listener to 2YD’s Opera Houses of the World series I am beginning to wonder if there are any Opera Houses in Central Europe. Judging by the outlandish places we visit, it appears that the strain of finding suitable establishments is nearing breaking point. In any case, it seems that any successful Opera House must be burned down a few times during its history and rebuilt, usually "under great difficulties" and "at considerable expense." If, in the endeavour to avoid feature ing any German or Austrian House, it is found necessary to fall back on our local institution, would it aualifv. or would we have to burn it
first?.
