#DojaCat calling out #TimothéeChalamet for saying “no one cares” about opera and ballet was already iconic — but then the #MetOpera jumped in with a whole performance video dedicated to him.
💬 N Crowd, are opera and ballet underrated or perfectly rated?

Garancas is Back as KUNDRY (yippee) and with Beczala and Mattei !!!
Also La Stemme as Kostelnicka - with also the beloved Allan Clayton)!
But seriously Medee (Cherubini in the transposed italian version...

Rewatching #Rodelinda by #Handel.
Renée Fleming has the most spectacular voice.
Met on Demand has the 2011 production in line.
The nice thing about baroque opera is that the setting is intimate enough so that the production (gorgeous) is not lost on the television.
#Opera #Baroque #MetOpera
Following the #Trump (aka Boor-in-Chief) rant re Bad Bunny singing in Spanish, will the #MetOpera take the hint and stop mounting all those operas in Italian, French, German, etc.?
Listening to the broadcast of Porgy and Bess from the Met.
This work is for Broadway, not for the first opera stage of America.

Join Dylan Bodnarick on Saturday at 10:00 AM PT for #MetOpera's production of Arabella. Strauss’s elegant romance brings us the glamour and enchantment of 19th-century Vienna, as soprano Rachel Willis-Sørensen makes her debut as a young noblewoman in search of love.

🎭 Denyce Graves retires after her final performance in Porgy and Bess at the Met Opera.
She now begins a new journey—directing and mentoring future talent.#DenyceGraves #OperaNews #MetOpera #PorgyAndBess #StageLegacy #RFXSignals #BlueskyCulture #ArtsUpdate
Saturday's #MetOpera radio broadcast (1/24) is #PorgyAndBess and while it is next to impossible to ruin this opera, the reviews have been uniformly good (with a few quibbles). Looking forward to it.
Met Opera sells its soul to Saudi Arabia for $200M. Western culture is officially bankrupt and on clearance sale to oil autocrats. Pay cuts for artists, billions for sheikhs. The decline of the West in one headline. #MetOpera #CultureWars #SaudiArabia

Today I'm finally seeing the Met's new production of i Puritani

A woman (Lisette Oropesa) in a vintage dress is kneeling on a surface, holding a wooden frame. She has long, wavy hair and appears to be gazing intently at the frame, which is empty.
I may miss I Puritani at the opera, but I am not willing to pay 436 $ for 2 seats.
Last performance is a Sunday matinee.
I will listen to the broadcast on @francemusique.fr !

Porgy 10 is complete! Heading into the rest of the week with our next show and a concert this weekend!! Hope to see you all there!! #SingKyaunnee #opera #newyork #metopera
Listening to this atm. Wonderful singing and wonderful orchestra. It is the nearest I’m going to get to the USA until the disgusting Trump “government” are gone (to prison hopefully).

Something that my Elder Crone status has taught me—and that I appreciate much more than many other things I’ve learned—is that it is so much better to go out & see something you enjoy by yourself rather than miss out on it entirely. And not having to talk to other people is truly calming. #MetOpera
Make the snowy trek to the local theater to see the live streaming of #metopera “Andrea Chenier”. Gosh I hope when we leave it’s not too bad.
The #MetOpera returns to All Classical Radio today! Join host Dylan Bodnarik on Saturday from 10:00 AM to 2:00 PM PT for Puccini's enchanting and timeless classic, La Bohème. Keri-Lynn Wilson conducts.
