First Steps to Opera
How to choose your first opera?
Classical music is a living art with over 50,000 events listed worldwide each season. For the novice who tries to book opera or concert tickets, it can prove to be a difficult task to choose the right show.
What are the most accessible works? Which are the best places? And above all, how to start? So many questions that one naturally asks oneself when taking the first steps in the lyrical art scene. Everyone knows Bizet's Carmen or Verdi's La Traviata, but maybe other works are just as popular. How to choose the right opera?
Even if all tastes are personal, for starters it is definitely worth keeping an open mind. Often, the idea that one has of opera with corpulent singers who, with a hand on the heart and increased decibels express the grieve over the loss of their beloved is a cliché that 'you must forget. Today, the greatest directors having invested the opera scene, it is common to find an exciting modernism. The emotion felt is increased tenfold. Another idea about the opera, we do not spend our time in tears. Many works are happy and cheerful.
To see more clearly in this abundant jungle, Music & Opera offers a suggestive selection to allow you to properly choose the first opera to see and get a first impression.
The titles chosen are often works not to be missed. If you are already caught by the virus, do not hesitate, these are also titles for all fans.
