I generally love Richard Strauss's operas, but have somehow never seen Arabella. Correcting that tonight.

🎶 Remembering The Metropolitan #Opera Legend, #LucineAmara, who graced opera stages for over 4 decades and passed away on September 6, 2024 ago at 99 years of age.

🎭From Micaëla in Carmen to Cio-Cio-San in Madama Butterfly, Ms. Amara's voice touched millions. She performed the role of Aida 36 times at The MET & throughout the world. In 1986, she performed AIDA for the last time at The MET and also performed at the Baths of Caracalla, San Diego, and San Francisco.❤️

“We were disappointed by the sales in the last two months of the season — our projections were much higher and I attribute the fact that we didn’t achieve our sales goals to a significant drop in tourism."
Is Mr Gelb serious ?

I could say a lot about the Met Opera’s current production of Anthony and Cleopatra, but hundreds of patrons decided at intermission last night that they’d had enough, so I’ll just leave it there.

I will say this: can we PLEASE have stories onstage that don’t feature women in sexual roles, or women being used as pawns for male power?

Of all the stories that could be told—why do we keep choosing the patriarchic viewpoint?

Fabulous premiere of the new production by Claus Guth of Salome. I have no words to explain how exceptional this was!
And notably @elzasoprano.bsky.social and @nezetseguin.bsky.social .
A night I will not forget where everything is perfect.

Listening to the Prisoners' Chorus from #Beethoven's #Fidelio at the #MetOpera. In the current environment, it's especially moving. "Sprecht leise"

Tosca tonight! #metopera in cinemas around the world. How can we lure the Metropolitan Opera to BlueSky?

Another newish opera this afternoon, Golijov's Ainadamar. So glad the Met is giving us the chance to see these works!

The Met's Grounded has been getting mixed reviews, but I figured I should see for myself before the run is over.

This was FABULOUS! What a fantastic score, I looooved it and the accumulation of a great orchestra, conductor (Aslop) and cast (Bullock ❤️) makes it a night to remember (and it is getting rare at the Met…).
