Why do so many people love opera? Yes, it's the incredible music, the stories, the thrilling spectacle of the costumes and sets, but mostly it's the profoundly emotional power of the human voice. This session will provide you with in-depth introductions to two of opera's greatest hits - Mozart's delightful,
Cosi fan Tutte and Verdi's dramatic,
Macbeth. Afterwards, you can see and hear both operas right here in Reno when New York's Metropolitan Opera broadcasts them live in HD to local movie theaters. In class, you'll be able to see and hear both yesterday's and today's most gifted opera stars sing famous arias from these two increible works and learn all about the history, the stories, the music, and the voices that will thrill audiences worldwide this Fall.
Look for the ZOOM link in the OLLI Weekly.
