about Opera
with Iain Scott
TRAVEL ? and LEARNING ?
… during a pandemic?
Clearly TRAVELLING to see the world’s great opera houses may be “on hold” for a while … at least until we can all feel more comfortably safe.
But CONTINUOUS LEARNING during the pandemic is still front and centre, albeit in a new and changed form.
No, we cannot now meet together in a traditional “classroom” context, but we are all (yes, all of us) now learning how to LEARN FROM HOME … with Zooming and on-line courses and webinars.
I hope I will be able to continue to help you to understand and appreciate the wonderful world of opera with my new platform (currently being built and coming soon) “YOUROPERAGUIDE.COM”.
I also hope that you will enjoy the new site I have curated to celebrate the brilliant legacy of my friend, my mentor, and one of the world’s greatest teachers of opera: Father OWEN LEE.
One last thing, the image for the banner above is … the BERLIN STAATSOPER on the Unter den Linden. It reopened in 2017 after an 8 year refurbishment which cost over 400 million euros. (But … I knew you recognised it immediately, of course!)
Remembering
Father OWEN LEE CSB
- See SEVEN VIDEO INTERVIEWS with him and
- hear many of his brilliant METROPOLITAN OPERA RADIO BROADCAST INTERMISSION LECTURES and
- browse though the many DOCUMENTS I have collected about him, and by him and
- explore his 21 BOOKS.
