I'm getting very excited for the new season of
Met Opera broadcasts. I must say that I'm very bummed to see some of the productions I'm most looking forward to are not on the HD list, but then again, I realize my tastes aren't very mainstream. This list includes Berg's
Lulu, Schönberg's
The Nose, and Strauss'
Elektra. However, what you can are amazing productions of Tosca, Aida, Turandot, Les Contes d'Hoffmann, Der Rosenkavalier, Carmen, Simon Boccanegra, Hamlet, and Armida. If you can go to any or all of these viewings, do. Opera needs all of us, and we all need opera.
