This picture was taken 5 years ago in the summer— when chairs are set out at Lincoln Center, a big screen is placed on the Metropolitan Opera House, and people gather to enjoy filmed performances from previous opera seasons (in this case, we were about to enjoy La Bohème). But this coming weekend, I will get to experience a live performance of Cosi Fan Tutte here at the Met —conducted by James Levine and compliments of my friend Lisa as a (belated) birthday gift. Can't wait! [To see more ABC posts, go here.] |

Happy ABCW!
I've never done the Opera in the summer. Looks fun.
ReplyDeleteI haven't been to the opera in close to a decade, when I went to Glimmerglass.
ReplyDeleteI think these screens are wonderful. They make viewing so much easier. Last opera I saw was.....a long time ago....don't remember.
