Do you want to sit in one of those plush chairs, taking in wonderful music, enjoy your drink in the intermission, chat with fellow opera goers?
Is the Metropolitan Opera ready for you?
Maybe. Maybe not.
There are so many operas to choose from. Which one do you see first? Are you afraid you’ll get the wrong one? Are you afraid of being bored, or worse, falling asleep? How long does it take for someone to learn enough about opera so that they’re, well, ready – for the Metropolitan Opera?
Some say it takes a long, long time. There’s so much to learn. There’s music theory, and the history of opera, the stories, the technical aspects, etc. You can sign up for a lengthy course, or you can ask around and then sign up for a lengthy course. Or you can read a hundred books. Who has the time?
Will you ever be ready for the Metropolitan Opera?
Maybe you can be ready for it sooner than you think – than anyone thinks.
All it takes, really, is three hours.
Really? That’s it? In three hours, you’ll be ready for the Metropolitan Opera?
Well, no, not really. It’s a little less than that. Less than three hours. It’s about two hours and fifty minutes.
Am I kidding you?
No. I’m not pulling your leg. I’ve put hundreds of people into those seats over the years. I know what I’m talking about.
The one thing opera experts forget to mention when talking to newbies is that opera is not rocket science. Really. Another thing they forget to mention that opera is not written and produced for the professionals, critics, musicians, etc. No. Opera is written and produced for YOU. Really. You’re the customer.
How complicated is it? How much will you need to learn?
Not much, and yet – a lot. You can learn a lot in three hours. Seriously – a lot. Opera is very different from any other entertainment. It’s a whole different universe. And yet, it’s very, very simple. In less than three hours you’ll know more about opera than … (dare I say it? … ) many opera buffs.
