I went to my first "in theater" opera performance yesterday...

Le Nozze di Figaro by Mozart (one of my all time top three favorites!) 👍 💕

A group of us attended "together" in three different cities (with texting/calls at intermission and afterward). Fun!

https://www.metopera.org/season/in-cinemas/2024-25-season/le-nozze-di-figaro/

It was outstanding of course. There were about ten little glitches in the #video stream, but the sound was excellent.

I wasn't too keen on the "modern" 1930s staging, but that is a minor point.

I would consider making this a habit! 🙂

Soprano Angel Blue Takes Center Stage at the Met in ‘Aida,’ Following in Leontyne Price’s Footsteps https://shinemycrown.com/soprano-angel-blue-takes-center-stage-at-the-met-in-aida-following-in-leontyne-prices-footsteps/?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=mastodon #AngelBlue #Aida #MetropolitanOpera #Opera #Soprano

The American soprano, one of the most admired singers of her generation, is headlining the Metropolitan Opera’s first new production of Verdi’s “Aida” in 36 years. Blue, now 40, debuted at the Met in 2017 as Mimi in Puccini’s “La Boheme” and has become a fixture at the house, starring in two opening nights and this fall portraying the lead character in Osvaldo Golijov’s “Ainadamar.” ABC News reports:

Enjoying this morning’s Metropolitan Opera broadcast of Terence Blanchard’s Fire Shut Up In My Bones. We’ve loved Blanchard’s music for film and video: so it’s a treat to experience this opera on #classicalKINGFM I’m loving his melodic creativity. https://www.metopera.org/season/2023-24-season/fire-shut-up-in-my-bones/?gad_source=1&gclsrc=ds #MetropolitanOpera #TerenceBlanchard #CharlesBlow

We open #WomensHistoryMonth with a very special celebration! Join us in wishing #MetropolitanOpera legend & diva Lucine Amara a very happy 99th birthday🎂!

Absolutely stunning production of Verdi's #LaForzaDelDestino at The #MetropolitanOpera
Kudos to the choreographer, the singers, and the orchestra.

I'm going down to #NYC tomorrow for my uncle's birthday and taking him to the #opera, opening night of La Forza del Destino at the #MetropolitanOpera. He's been a huge opera fan for most of his life, and he can't really get there on his own anymore, and I think this may be the first time he's going since the start of the pandemic, so this is a Big Deal. I am a bundle of nerves; there's so much that could go wrong! 1/6

Listening to #MetropolitanOpera on #ClassicalKINGFM Florencia in the Amazon. We saw a production years ago #SeattleOpera Beautiful music, singing.

Glad to hear that our local (but also heard worldwide on the internet) classical #music station #WCPE has reversed it's decision to not broadcast certain #operas from the
upcoming #MetropolitanOpera season due to their "non-biblical" themes and the fact that some of them were not written by dead white European males. https://indyweek.com/music/local-classical-music-station-reverses-decision-not-to-air-opera-with-adult-themes/

"Three of the operas that WCPE plans to reject in the 2023-24 season were written by Black or Mexican composers. This past April, WCPE also refused to broadcast another Met-produced opera written by a Black composer that included LGBTQ themes."

I loved the “visual artist” performer who enhanced the action with live-drawn projections. It was also the funniest DZ I’ve seen— Papageno was hysterical, very funny and distinguished as the lowest comedy I’ve seen in an operatic performance #opera #mozart #magicflute #metropolitanopera
