Have you ever seen live opera?

This can be magical, but very expensive.

I once saw La Traviata in Rome.

It can be dreadful too. Othello in Covert Garden, I walked out. The chorus were better than the principals

I've been many times over the years.
I like the drama and the storytelling.

If it's not something you've ever experienced, next time you have time to spare, go to YouTube and find Mozart's "The marriage of Figaro".

There are several renditions there.
Pick a good company production.
Something like the Deuts oper Berlin. Or the English national opera or the Teatro alla Scalla.

Worth watching.
