• • It's not performed much nowadays. It sounds pretty, and can be quite daring, and often fails to do the expected, but how well it works as a whole on stage I cannot say. Adam Cuerden (talk) 12:04, 20 January 2022 (UTC)

• Ikan, you can watch the whole opera on YouTube. Most people forget how many classic works are available there. It's always worth doing a search. --Cart (talk) 17:59, 21 January 2022 (UTC)

• Agreed, but I also was interested in Adam's opinion about it. Ikan Kekek (talk) 21:37, 21 January 2022 (UTC)

• Do plan to try to watch the whole opera version, but I find one performance is hard to judge a piece on once it reaches a certain level. I've heard terrible recordings of pieces I like, and wonderful productions of pieces that probably didn't deserve them. Biggest thing with opera are the scenes you can't pull off well nowadays, like how the big march from Aida often falls flat in performances that can't afford the original "throw money at it" staging. You have to get fairly close to an opera to properly judge. And a recording isn't quite theatre. Especially with my sound system. Adam Cuerden (talk) 07:51, 22 January 2022 (UTC)

• Of course that's true. I've played and been to many operas over the years, and my girlfriend is an operatic mezzo-soprano. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 11:34, 22 January 2022 (UTC)
