Chatting about Met streaming

This is your reminder that tomorrow evening (and for the next 24 hours after that) the Met is streaming Don Carlo, one of my favorite productions ever, with the extra-fabulous Furlanetto, the gorgeous Poplavskaya, my fave Keenlyside (who is choreographed properly!), and the marvelously dramatic Alagna :D So watch it and then come back and talk to me about it! Like, seriously, I would rec this even to people for whom opera isn't their thing, if you happen to like music and ~drama~ :D (Although I think the first act is much less interesting than the rest of it -- okay, fine, I'm in it for the love triangle between son, father, and son's best friend, and less so for the son-father-wife triangle -- by which you can see how, er, operatic this is! Anyway, that is a long-winded way of saying, skip the first act if het love stories are Not Your Fave.)

Next week the Met will be streaming (among other things) Aida with Netrebko, which I was about a quarter through watching anyway, so I'm gonna commit to finish watching that and am excited to talk about that with anyone who is watching it.

Also, if anyone has anything interesting about any other broadcasts, including last week's Wagner, I'd love to hear it. I didn't watch any of the Wagner but I still have my Met on Demand subscription (which I'm going to keep for at least another month or two) so I could at some point, if there's one that anyone highly recommends.

Meanwhile... ( it only took me what, two weeks, but I finally finished the Met Trovatore! )
