In terms of “Bugs Bunny cartoons ruining opera for me”, I’m able to get through “Ride of the Valkyries” and the Tannhäuser overture just fine (mostly because Wagner can kiss my ass forever), but I did just start giggling uncontrollably listening to the Barber of Seville overture. I’m so sorry to do this to you, Nicolai Ghiaurov, but I cannot hear that music without thinking of Elmer Fudd lost in a theater.
