Insightful but slightly confusing

"I love all of the comments that Evelyn Lear puts in to the music. However, I don't understand why she separated the "Mein Gott! Mein Gott!" trio from the "Hab mir's gelobt" trio--they happen right next to each other. As a result, since I didn't know the opera as a whole, I only learned the first half of the trio before I went off to an opera workshop in which I was Sophie in the trio. So I had to quickly learn the "Hab mir's gelobt" part! Also, the characher analyses aren't as long as I thought they were going to be, but I guess they helped a bit. The English translations helped a lot, but it didn't put each word with its exact translation--she translated it sentence by setence, so I still had to make sure I knew which word was which in the sentence."
