@malcolm-f-tucker requested this. in honor of the occasion

Ok, operabracket has put me in the mood for onegin, and I just wanted to share this absolutely amazing version from the Dallas Symphony Orchestra and singers from the Dallas Opera. It's like halfway staged, and everyone is just *so good*. Plus, the subtitles are translated well, so it's easy to follow, and you can really get into it.

i need decision power of The Internet to help me decide if i go see forza this friday night

(pros: long dearth of interesting operas at the roh after forza; potentially visiting a friend who lives in london; might write a review?? idk; just OPERA)

(cons: longer trip; could also attend induction event at my new uni & Make New Friends. good tickets expensive. not my favourite verdi rlly)

really enjoyed the energy of the first week and a bit of operabracket. it was as though i'd popped out of the knitting circle for a smoke and come back in to find everybody reenacting the plot of the rite of spring with their knitting needles.

the Verdi vs Wagner pairings are sooooo funny. operabracket is out there recreating the late 19th century musical landscape fr

Since our good friend Titus Flavius Vespasianus seems to have been the focus of the current @operabracket scuffle, I decided I'd do a study of one of his marble busts for funsies. Remember, a vote for Tito is a vote for world, or rather operablr, peace. And also for mercy and the good of Rome or whatever.

I’m spinned it 4 times (I was a bit confused at the 4 wheels), and the results are genius:

I really really want to see the 4th one, despite the the staging that inspired this being a primary source of a traumatic period of my life. (Also operabracket staging I’m dying)

*Jigsaw's voice* I want to play a game.

this is how i imagine all my non opera followers are hearing about @operabracket drama

[stoportotouch]

now that i am no longer particularly invested in operabracket, i think that a lesson in the streisand effect may be of benefit to some of the denizens of Here.
