2009/10 New York Met Opera Season

Overview

While publicly we may snub our noses at the silver spoons of high culture, we all secretly desire to dust off our hats, don our coats and march off to an evening at the opera. The only real problem is that it costs a pretty penny. Luckily, the solution to this age-old dilemma is not so far away.

Catering to us average folk, Chauvel are hosting the best bits of a whole season of opera on film — and the latest season from New York's renowned Met, at that. Forget The Rabbit of Seville: Until October, you can can catch Carmen and that timeless tune, the exoticism of Turandot and many more. Hats and coats are optional, but they would certainly enhance the occasion.
