"Dead Man Walking"-- with Joyce DiDonato in fact -- played at the New York City Opera in 2002, four years before Gelb came to the Met, and it got lousy reviews then. But by all means, use the fact that Gelb has not revived an opera that failed at NYCO barely a decade agao, and with the same leading singer to boot, as proof of his incompetence. Armchair artistic direction is easy when one is utterly ignorant of history.
