Opera Wars

Which opera team are you on?“Old” operas versus the “New” operas. According to the book, Opera Wars by Caitlin Vincent, artistic directors and others at the nation’s opera companies are in conflict with themselves over staging the standard operas from the 18th and 19th centuries or producing those composed in the late 20th and 21st centuries. There’s a new directory for musical instruments adapted for those would be musicians with disabilities.  Other companies and engineers are developing adaptations too. Apple Music Classical has made a surprising choice for it’s classical album of the year.
