Finally, stagings and recordings of the original five-act French version of the opera have become more frequent, performances having been given at the Teatro alla Scala in 1970 featuring Plácido Domingo with Katia Ricciarelli, at the Théâtre du Châtelet in 1996, with Roberto Alagna as Don Carlos ( which has been released on CD and DVD ), and at the San Francisco Opera in 1986 and 2003.

According to friend Katia Mann, he feared he would die during a year that was a multiple of 13 ( quoted in Lebrecht 1985, 294 ).

In one notable incident, in the late 1930s, a letter from her to Hitler prevented Hedwig and Alfred Pringsheim ( whose daughter Katia was married to Thomas Mann ) from being arrested by the Gestapo.

During the 1980s and 1990s, the role of Norma was performed by such different singers as Katia Ricciarelli, Anna Tomowa-Sintow, Marisa Galvany, Dame Gwyneth Jones, and Jane Eaglen.

One bright spot was the emergence of Katia, who scored 15 goals and broke Tiffeny Milbrett's record for most points in a season.

John has been married to the French pianist Katia Labeque, who was also a member of his band in the early 1980s.

By February 1916, however, there was no apparent sign of any unusual military activity in the Sinai itself, when the British began construction on the first stretch of standard gauge railway and water pipeline from Kantara to Romani and Katia.

On 24 April, the day after the Katia and Oghratina, Chauvel, commander of the Anzac Mounted Division, was placed in command of all the advanced troops: the 2nd Light Horse Brigade and the New Zealand Mounted Rifles Brigades at Romani and an infantry division ; the 52nd ( Lowland ) at Dueidar.

At the beginning of July, it was estimated there were at least 28, 000 Ottoman troops in the Gaza – Beersheba area of southern Palestine, and that just before the battle began at Romani, there were 3, 000 troops at Oghratina, not far from Katia, another 6, 000 at the forward base of Bir el Abd, east of Oghratina, 2, 000 to 3, 000 at Bir Bayud to the south-east, and another 2, 000 at Bir el Mazar, some to the east, not far from El Arish.

This line of sand hills, which were high enough to see Katia oasis from, marked the eastern edge of an area of very soft and shifting sand beyond which were lower dunes and harder sand where movement by both infantry and mounted forces was considerably easier.

Every day until 3 August, these two brigades alternated riding out from their base at Romani towards Katia at about 02: 00 and bivouacking until dawn, at which time they advanced on a wide front until German or Ottoman fire was provoked.

Their situation was now precarious, as their main attacking force was well past the right of the main British infantry positions ; infantry in the 52nd ( Lowland ) Division was closer to the nearest enemy-controlled water source at Katia than most of the attacking force.

By 05: 30, the main German and Ottoman force was in a disorganised retreat towards Katia, with the 1st and 2nd Light Horse Brigades and the Ayrshire and Leicestershire batteries not far behind.

At 10: 30, the general mounted advance began and by midday, was on a line from west of Bir Nagid to south of Katib Gannit ; in the centre the New Zealand Mounted Rifles Brigade were approaching the south-west edge of the Katia oasis ; on their left the 1st, the 2nd Light Horse, the 5th Mounted Yeomanry Brigades and infantry in the 52nd ( Lowland ) Division were attacking Abu Hamra, to the north of the old caravan road, while the 3rd Light Horse Brigade was away to the New Zealander's right, south of the old caravan road, attacking German and Ottoman units at Bir el Hamisah.

They captured approximately 4, 000 German and Ottoman combatants and killed more than 1, 200, but the main enemy force was able to escape with all their artillery, except for one captured battery, and retreat back to Oghratina after fighting a successful rearguard action at Katia.

The next morning, infantry in the 42nd Division was ordered to advance eastwards at 04: 00 and occupy a line from Bir el Mamluk to Bir Katia, while the 52nd ( Lowland ) Division was to advance from Abu Hamra and prolong the infantry line of the 42nd Division to the north-east.

During the previous night, the German and Ottoman force evacuated Katia and was moving towards Oghratina when Chauvel ordered the Anzac Mounted Division to continue the attack.

At Katia and again at Bir el Abd, Chauvel attempted to sweep around the Turkish flank but wound up making frontal attacks on the Turkish rearguard and was beaten off by determined counterattacks and artillery fire against the 3rd Light Horse Brigade.

In a documentary film called The Loves of Emma Bardac directed by Thomas Mowrey, the accomplished duo-pianists Katia and Marielle Labeque perform a selection of pieces by composers Bizet, Fauré and Debussy.

During the next morning, the attacking force fought strongly to maintain its positions, but by nightfall they had been pushed back to their starting point at Katia.

German General Friedrich Freiherr Kress von Kressenstein's raiding force retaliated to this growing British presence, by attacking the widely dispersed 5th Mounted Brigade on 23 April, Easter Sunday and also St George's Day, when Yeomanry were surprised and overwhelmed at Katia and Oghratina east of Romani.

Even more than at Katia on 5 August, these soldiers were more numerous, ready, full of fight and more strongly supported by well-placed Austrian and Ottoman guns delivering both heavy and accurate fire.

Arrangements were made to hold and garrison the country decisively won by this series of indecisive engagements, from Katia eastwards to Bir El Abd.
