„The "opera", a combination of beautiful classical melodies, singing, acting and a variety of stage performances, is a composite art. I live in Berlin, Berlin is a city of art bombs where three opera theaters and numerous classical performances are held every day. I am a freelance writer who writes about art. So, I mainly concentrate on the visual aspects of opera, such as stage, costumes and lighting. Classic opera has old story and there is sometimes masculine and racist elements. Such factors can be refined in the course of production. I hope that drama directors will make delicate directings with a modern equal perspective. P.S. I suggest to increase the women's toilets at the Berlin Opera Theater. It is not Gender Equality that makes men and women the same number of toilets. I took this picture from the Komische Oper on last Sunday. I saw Giacomo Puccini's LA BOHÈME and it was fantastic.“ https://www.instagram.com/p/BtMOoVdBmpS/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=5cr3i8kgg3kx

„For me, opera means forgetting all the problems of the daily life for a few moments and diving into another world full of music and the magic of art. A visit to the opera house inspires me for new projects. The combination with the orchestra and amazing and talented singers on stage and how they work together perfectly always makes me goose bumps. Opera is for me pure satisfaction.My opinion is: Everyone should go and visit an opera from time to time, because there’s a suitable piece for everyone and you can learn so much and receive valuable insights. Opera is for EVERYONE! When does your journey into this magical world start ? 🌍🎶“ https://www.instagram.com/p/BtIsEsUB_bZ/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=kf8o7jlg0ix8

„If always been sorrounded by music. My mother is a piano teacher. My entire family, all of them play an instrument. The connection with the opera and especially the Fledermaus first formed when I performed in it. I really was just an extra on stage, but it showed me this incredible world. An opera takes you away into this other world. And you just lean back and listen to this amazing music. If seen a lot of operas over the years but it still feels so magical coming back every time.“ https://www.instagram.com/p/BtGDGy8hjor/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1r54gdjvnpqpn

„Opera plays an important role in my life since I was 11 years old. When I'm watching an opera, I feel peaceful and full of happines. Without it my life would not be good.“ https://www.instagram.com/p/BtD4-OAhP_b/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=gfye56rkbkku

„Hello everyone! My name is Imke (on the left) and this is my friend Anna (on the right). We try to go to the opera together as much as we can. We're both singing in a choir and therefore absolutely love music and everything that has to do with it! Especially opera - because it makes me feel everything that one can possibly feel within only a few hours. For me, opera is the most expressive form of art, especially when a touching story, mesmerizing music, a great staging, great singers and so many other things are being put together! My first opera in which I fell in love with was LA TRAVIATA by Verdi. I've watched it a thousand times already. The production by Willi Decker will always be my favorite! I really hope, more young people would discover the beauty of such art!“ https://www.instagram.com/p/Bs_NyRQhu4y/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1mzzjqjpmf3vo

„„Hi, I am Béla, 15 years old, living in Berlin. I love playing the piano, playing cello, drawing, learning latin, forging swords and knives, I am interested in history, in politics. Today is my first night at the opera. Let's see how I like it." https://www.instagram.com/p/Bs3SdNphm3Z/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=u85wmggm4hvd

„My name is Marco from Basel, Switzerland. I am a real operalover and since 38 years I regularly visit opera performances and recitals in different theatres. Opera is a fascinating mixture of voice, play and scenery which creates so many emotions. I am particularly interested in interpretations by operasingers and stagedirectors. There we meet many interesting young and older people who have the same affinity and are seeking distance from everyday life. When the audience is focusing on the performance then there is something magic in the air. Especialy for younger visitors it is a great experience to hear and see this kind of music. In the opera theatre singing is live and therefore a big challenge for the artists. Even after having seen so countless opera performances during the past decades I still consider it as being a privilege that I can see and hear this amazing art.“ https://www.instagram.com/p/Bs0qh0mhtLk/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=ool5zbbu603e

„Hi, I am Nils, partner of @janinemariefritsch - Janine loves to produce photos for @peopleattheopera - like this one, showing me. This was my first opera tonight and I definitely want to explore different ones. I really liked the scenery and the way the stage looked with the light. The acting and the way that story was unfolding was also really exciting. The only thing that did not completely fit into this opera for me was the music. That is also a reason why I want to see different operas. Maby with a choir or just slightly deeper tones. I am really looking forward to seeing more and discovering my favorite opera.“ https://www.instagram.com/p/BsyRJx-hCS0/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=m2pncr5dk7tm

„Last I decided to get the ClassicCard and I started going to the opera more regularly. It is know my last year with it and I am trying to use it as often as possible. I love seeing all the parts of an opera come together on stage. The scenery, the music, the costumes and the singers. On of the production that I will always remember is Romes and Juliet. They had a huge choir on stage, dance and the aesthetic was also incredible.“ https://www.instagram.com/p/Bsvon9-hw94/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=2g3dcgo0l2ms

„Hi, I am Thamires! This is my first opera ever tonight! And I read a little bit about it before coming here to understand the background of this specific opera - CARMEN - better. I still don’t like the way women are portraited as always the bad and every guy is a macho. The music however is very very nice and I love the scenery as well.“ https://www.instagram.com/p/BsqeMtNBtOZ/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=rvyjpu2b1dml

„I am going to the opera because this is one on few real things in our life. The magic happens when every single element of the performance excels. It is not only about singers, but yes – they make real difference. Yet in opera everything matters: director, conductor, scenography, costumes, lights… What makes me admire this reality is the fact that all of them have only this very moment on stage to reach for perfection and move our souls. Here and now, never again. Germany is my „opera paradise”. Berlin, Munich and Dresden are my usual destinations. But sometimes I go further. Last time I went to Bologna, because of Don Giovanni. Wanted to hear Michele Mariotti as conductor and see Don Giovanni made in Italy. And you know what? Mariotti is fantastic!“ https://www.instagram.com/p/BsinayjB5XT/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1aw15jm1x32c4

„I believe opera to be one of the ultimate art forms of all times. It involves singing, dancing, acting, orchestration, visual art (make-up, props, costumes, set decoration), poetry, prose, etc. The emotions are conveyed in its purest rawest form, no electronic amplification nor digital manipulation. The stories are those that have endured time and survived change. The music is as beautiful as it is intimate. And above all it is a group of different people with different skills collaborating just to help perishable human beings to get lost in a moment of timeless wonder.“ https://www.instagram.com/p/Bsdmq5zB7Bm/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=198j6v7n4de9

„Opera is for me special time with my friends when the times stops and I can live the story with the singers on the stage. To feel their joy and pain . It’s all about the sound of the orchestra and the singers. I have goosebumps every time when I enter the beautiful opera houses around the world.“ Tell about your opera goosebumps! https://www.instagram.com/p/Bsa_Zubh6WW/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=l2721wlxfp6b

"I want to save the future of classical culture. Last year, at the age of 19, I initiated the society of young cultural entrepreneurs. I founded it together with like-minded people: the AREPO Gesellschaft Berlin. At AREPO, we bring young people together who see themselves as doers: We organize operas in new, unseen ways. We are artists, composers, managers, directors, who come together to develop new, contemporary concepts and implement them. We meet monthly, together with experienced cultural managers and impressive artists. We use our time and energy for what we truly love to make it accessible to future generations.” Question: How should opera reinvent itself? https://www.instagram.com/p/BsV4ZkXhIBi/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=11kc6j4shba2e
