I’m looking at the Met schedule, as well as the opera in cinema site and thinking about how I’d like to attend some of these.
If I go to the Saturday morning Met operas I have to cancel students. Hmm. Probably not nice to do that to them, so maybe I should attend the rebroadcast on Wednesday at 6:30 when I’m able. I think I’ll put together the schedule and compare it to my own. Surely some of these will work.
… as you might guess, I really do love opera. We have San Francisco season tickets … but I’d love to see and hear these others. We’ll see if I can swing it.
