]]> Comment on Lyric Opera of Chicago announces its 2012-13 season by Janet Wilson http://operamusicbroadcast.com/2012/03/02/lyric-opera-of-chicago-announces-its-2012-13-season/comment-page-1/#comment-9002 Janet Wilson Sat, 12 May 2012 05:31:07 +0000 http://operamusicbroadcast.com/?p=2187#comment-9002 With a bit of forward palnning I'm hoping to visit Canada and the States in September/October, 2013. As a music journalist I would like to see as much opera as possible and I was wondering if you could give me a hint of what might be programmed for that time next year. I know it's a little early but I'd certainly appreciate any feedback you can give me. With a bit of forward palnning I’m hoping to visit Canada and the States in September/October, 2013.

May I ask - what about art house theaters? The same "auditory assaults" have been happening there for 30 years and it doesn't stop attendees. Personally I prefer any attendees to opera, even under unusual circumstances. Now if this were in the actual opera house? Entirely different issue. Joseph, you have a good point.

Both however remain vulnerable to the auditory assaults of whispered conversation, bouts of coughing, sweets being slowly and studiously unwrapped, cell phones ringing, the restlessness of the bored and the strident flickering of the lit screen in the dark. My impression is that movie theaters are far less intent on policing etiquette breaches that intrude into the consciousness of audiences struggling to focus attention on the performance. The front counter sale of plastic glassed wine swishing in ice chips, mammoth containers of pop corn designed to last the distance and requiring slow chewing , and potato chips requiring noisily slow extraction from crinkling bags would probably get short shrift at most opera houses.

What about the Castleton Festival, in Castleton, Virginia? I sang there for three summers. High Caliber opera and orchestra perforamances conducted by Lorin Maazel on his 600 acre estate. Lots of fun. Great festival :) Hi!

I enjoy your station very much, and was wondering if you could recommend an opera for a new listener. I like the big voice Italian operas, 1940's era. Any suggestions?
