Notes from the opera

Jump to Comments

Notes from my visit to a student opera production of Menotti’s “help help the globolinks!”

- I don’t want to be different for the sake of difference. Such absurdity is only ever an expression of vanity. And artistic immaturity.

-There are only two kinds of art: Good and Bad. Some bad art has potential.

- Don’t open an opera with dance. It’s a bait and switch.

-Digital music is growing so fast, it sounds dated.

-Why didn’t they use the horn from the car?

- It’s not that they sing, it’s that they say things we already know.
