On May 16 several museums in the centro will be open from 7 to 10pm  (click HERE).

Music fans should not miss the rare opportunity to hear Richard Strauss' rapturously beautiful opera
'Die Frau Ohne Shatten' (here called 'La Mujer sin Sombra') (click HERE for ticket info.)

I am planning a trip to Mexico this year but want to wait to see If Patti will be invited back & accept another concert at Anahuacalli. I spent a week in DF in February & then had to make another trip for Patti in May. The show was magnificent & the Mexican Patti fans are a great bunch. 4000 people--it was like a big love fest! Festival de Mexico doesn't seem to have a schedule out yet. My friends expect me in May. I'm working on book about the history of their family to be shared with children and grandchildren.
