One of the things to love about New York: Here at Lincoln Center, they film the operas that people pay big bucks to see at the Met, then show them in the summer in hi-def on this screen—so all of us po' folks may enjoy as well. They also showed the first-night performance of this year's season on this screen (and on another one in Times Square). Thank you, Met Opera! [And you can see more "music" here.] |
Well, that's a really good idea for us monetarily-deprived!
ReplyDeleteWhen I was in college in Atlanta, the Met performed each night for a whole week in May. I was thrilled to be able to attend one or two each year and then on Sunday at the end of the week, a few of the principals sang at the church on Emory's campus (free).
ReplyDeleteHow wonderful to be able to see the performances on a screen in NYC.

Love the windows and the scene. And it's great that they show the performances later so more people have a chance to experience it.
ReplyDeleteI never knew this!
ReplyDelete& I do really want to see an opera there someday too.
thanks Alexa.
