On January 8, 2006 Rise Stevens was honored by the Metropolitan Opera Guild at the Rose Theater down at the Time Warner Building at Columbus Circle. It was a love fest. There should be an umlaut over the "e" in Rise's name. I can't figure how to do that on this blog site. The images are now, obviously, totally emotional. First Rise with Anna Moffo. |

Rise with Van Cliburn. The background could not be changed, because it was hard for her to move around. |

Onstage at tribute with son, Nicolas Surovy, and Van Cliburn. |
This was a beautiful evening, a sold out house, a wonderful tribute to a beautiful lady.
