Opera Bubbles

Hi, guys! What's new? Unfortunately, summer is coming to an end but...I hope operafans don't get upset about it!:). As we know autumn is harvest time and the operaworld will also bear us a lot of fruit by releasing a bunch of new recordings!!! So be ready to spend your money, time but mostly ENJOY new music, opera productions and amazing singers! As there will be a huge amount of new different things, I'm gonna tell you about upcoming CDs and DVDs separately. Let's start with DVDs/Blu-Rays! September 1 – R. Strauss «Arabella» by C Major Salzburg Easter Festival, 2014 Renée Fleming ,  Thomas Hampson ,  Albert Dohmen ,  Gabriela Beňačková , Hanna-Elisabeth Müller Staatskapelle Dresden  & Sächsischer Staatsopernchor Dresden,  Christian Thielemann Staged by Florentine Klepper

I’ve been thinking about writing this post for a long time and finally I’ve made it! I’d like to present you a pretty short list of my favorite operas! Actually, it was hard to pick few of many, many candidates so…in advance I want to clear it out that the chosen ones were just the most striking things that came to my mind! It’s like to choose a favorite movie or a song! Tough!!!! You may ask why I’m doing all of this if it’s so impossible for me! I just hope that my blog will arouse your interest in these masterpieces I’ve picked. Maybe some of them you know but haven’t had time to listen or watch them or you didn’t even think such pieces existed. Well, it seems to me this is gonna be an informative and entertaining post for you, guys!!!

A few days ago I found out great news for me personally and for operalovers of my city of Chelyabinsk!!! We’re gonna have Met Live in HD broadcasts of season 2013-14 in our local cinema theatre!!! FINALLLLYYYYYY!!! I’ve been waiting for this…I guess…for 5 years!!! The dream came true! So happy right now))). Besides my city, in Russia there are other 22 cities where all the Russian can enjoy  very good Met productions! (I shared with you the links below this post about the broadcasts in Russia and in the world) . Picture by Ms.OperaGeek All that stuff inspired me to dedicate this bubble to my lovely Met and his HD season! I’ve ranged all the HD productions according to my scale of anticipation!
