What do you love about Opera?
Though I understand nothing as a foreigner, I love the beautiful musical sound coming from the singer.
I read the storyline in advance so that I can understand the expressions better as they sing and act.
And many love it because that the story fits well with the behavioural pattern of the society.
And many may not agree with me
Some said it’s boring, and the song made them yawn.
Some said they attend opera just to enjoy a sound sleep.
Some said they are unrealistic and too much emotion is involved.
A few expressed that they are heartbroken.
“Theatres are curious places, magician’s trick-boxes where the golden memories of dramatic triumphs linger like nostalgic ghosts, and where the unexplainable, the fantastic, the tragic, the comic and the absurd are routine occurrences on and off the stage. Murders, mayhem, political intrigue, lucrative business, secret assignations, and of course, dinner.”
Do you agree?
My guess is it’s all about the mindset.
May be I am wrong.
Please share your thoughts.

Take care, my friend.
Namaste 🙏🙏🙏
