I was at Opera San Jose, picking up my music for the upcoming production of The Flying Dutchman. I already had my own copy of the first oboe part, but I wanted to see if there were any cuts. But here’s the BIG NEWS:

Opera San Jose has student rush tickets! Show up 90 minutes prior to the performance and you only pay $10 per tickets, as long as you have your student ID with you!

This is a great deal, folks. There are tickets for most performances. Opening night and Sundays are probably going to sell out, but otherwise there are a good number of seats. So GO! See and hear the opera … in the wonderful new hall. It’s a good opera company. And this Wagner opera is probably the most accessible for you Wagner fearers.

You won’t regret going. I’m sure of it.
