Passionate about opera and classical music?

It's the music, it's the words, it's the voices, it's the story, and then there is something else yet that makes opera larger than life. Perhaps it is the emotional reaction of the listener that perfects and completes the art. Many opera themes linger on the ordinary; gentle reminders that our real life passions are, to us, anything but.
