Bill Mitchell and others have submitted articles lately
on the subject of supertitles at the opera.  This indicates
that a number of net contributors are going to the opera,
particularly on the East coast.

I, for one, would like to ask these guys to post their
feelings about the actual PERFORMANCES.  Since I've found
few reliable critics and have no chance to hear or see
things at the Met or NYC opera, I'd be very interested to
read opinions on what people heard and saw and how they
liked it.  The same for orchestral programs, solo recitals,
etc.

Maybe I'm an exception to this group, but I'd find such
first-hand commentary on what was good or bad much more
interesting reading than the kind of endless arguments
about the theoretical validity of one person's opinions
on atonality vs. tone rows vs. clusters, etc.
