Go beyond Pacific Opera Victoria’s season and explore three of the Metropolitan Opera’s 2012-13 broadcasts. This course includes the same three lectures as Enchanted Evenings at the Opera – Verdi’s Macbeth, Britten’s Albert Herring, and Puccini’s Tosca – plus talks on three operatic masterpieces offered in high definition in Cineplex theatres in Victoria. After bloody murder in Verdi’s Macbeth, we will explore Mozart’s often-misunderstood final opera, La Clemenza di Tito. December finds us with Verdi’s music in a different vein – the passionate music of illicit lovers in a Masked Ball; finally, we will discuss the relationship between human suffering, guilt, and redemption in Wagner’s most spiritual and noble music in his last opera, Parsifal.
