The Tenor's Aunt

Today I went to see Turandot produced by AZ Opera. It was a nice production. Larry decided to stay home since he has been sick with a cold. The women sitting around me, seeing that I was alone, starting talking to me during the intermissions. The lead tenor, Antonio Nagore, was their cousin/nephew. They had come to town to hear him in the opera. Across the balcony sat his mother and more relatives. I got to hear about his early life. The cousin next to me used to babysit for him. I asked her if he sang to her. She said no, that she sang to him. I wonder if he did an encore of Nessun Dorma for family after the opera. It would be fun to have a tenor in the family to sing to me now and then!
