with David," created for our

... and
there was David
|
and their 209 dealer guests. It became the
most remarkable
evening
in the lives of all those present.
A night of legend and elation7:00 pm. All
tourists were gone from the museum. We moved in a mountain of chairs,
tables, kitchen equipment, et al - to make David's
Tribuna and
The Corridor of Prisoners a
wondrous dining room.
In the meantime, professional guides of
Florence took our guests on a private tour of the Academy and then
to the
Hall of the Colossus
where an Italian string quartet offered a suitable baroque musical
background to their cocktail reception.
8:15 pm. We announced dinner. Guests entered ...
and there was David and the Prisoners in breathtaking majesty!
An
irrefutably elegant dinner, as befitted the occasion, followed. But the
evening of legend and elation was far from finished for we had brought
The Three Tenors - No not those three tenors - The Three
Tenors from Milan's La Scala Opera House - to sing the well known arias
from recognized Italian Operas to our guests to insure the night would
be forever after ... legendary!
Five standing
ovations later. Five demands for encore after encore later, and the
tenors were allowed, regretfully, to depart.
