Have you ever been to an opera ?

I lived a few minutes away from the San Francisco Opera house. Never got the chance to attend one. I live with regret.

Yes ! My father took me to see Leontyne Price when I was small. I’ve been to several since then.

@bijouxbroussard Verdi. She did both Verdi and Puccini, in the 70s, at the San Francisco Opera. I went to Puccini's Il Tabarro. Can't pin down the exact date.

@Northwest Based on my grade at the time, it was 68 or 69 when I went with Pop.

@bijouxbroussard I did not realize she performed in the late 60s, in San Francisco.

@Northwest Yes. I was still in elementary school.
