She wore mink. It was many years she had not taken, because the animal supporters in Barcelona burn it with a spray. But last night she had an excuse: the snow, which also happens in Barcelona only every ten years. And with this excuse Sea could dress for the occasion: Juan Diego Flórez.
So Sea wore mink. She up the steps of the Liceu differently, like her mother, her grandmother, as her great-grandmother. Yes, because if it was a wedding, the wedding of the young Peruvian tenor with Barcelona –and Sea sensed that it was-, she had to dress like a lady, as the lady who was.
Sea represented the city, the capital of the Catalan nation, Barcelona, past, present and future of the Liceu, when Juan Diego Flórez gave the nine high do in the aria "Mes amis".
And then, with the audience standing applauding, the tenor put his hand on the heart. And Sea also got her hand on her heart, in the mink scarf. Yes, there were weddings.
Juan Diego Flórez smiled transported of joy. He requested the public to be silent and the orchestra to play. And he repeated all nine high do. In his seat in the amphitheater, Sea, Barcelona, Catalonia, smiled transported of joy.
