Hey, There's an Opera This Weekend

Posted by Dan Gibson on Fri, Nov 18, 2011 at 4:00 PM

I attended a few of the Arizona Opera's performances last year—mostly to appease my wife, who has dubious taste in men, but high class in culture—but I think I'm actually a fan now. The performances are dramatic and interesting, the staging is cool, I actually enjoy the music, and I get to rise above my reality-show-fan self for a bit. Arizona Opera makes a preview video for each of their shows, giving some insight into the opera itself and what goes into putting on the show itself, so here's the one for Faust, which you can Saturday night or Sunday afternoon at the Music Hall.

And don't forget the UA School of Music is presenting Gian Carlo Menotti's "The Consul" this weekend also.
