The YouTube Account OperaVision is a goldmine for great operas. They have a collection of well-known operas, as well as some deep cuts and contemporary works from all over the world available in their library. For those of you who were bummed to miss The Barber of Seville at the JQL Capitol Theatre in March, this production by The Irish National Op...
While we’re on the subject of Spanish barbers, the Teatro de la Zarzuela has a rather charming production of El barberillo de Lavapiés. In fact, one of the numbersin the final act is a popular favorite in our Resident Artists’ school shows! You might have to brush up on your Spanish for this recording, though—the subtitles are in Spanish. Even if y...
You’d be hard pressed to find opera music that is more fun than that of Jacques Offenbach. This operetta about two penniless street singers is no exception.
There are just times when only an absurdly frivolous Viennese operetta will do—and being stuck in the house all day is one of those times! This 1983 production pulls out all the stops with the magnificent Kiri Te Kanawa, fabulous costumes, and ballet dancers. There are no English subtitles, but the music is so good you hardly need them. (And let’s ...
Who knew that an opera about death, fraud, and one of Dante’s circles of hell could be so fun? If you’re a newcomer to opera, Gianni Schicchiis a great way to start. Like most of Puccini’s work, this opera has incredible music. It’s also only an hour long and is absolutely hilarious.
The Magic Fluteis undeniably a perennial favorite among opera audiences. Its bizarre story, hidden meanings, and beautiful music make it very rewatchable. This production by the Paris Opera is particularly interesting. It creates a world that is somewhere between an ancient fairy land and a modern-day Masonic temple with a feather-clad Papageno, an...
The Marriage of Figaro was the very first opera that I saw live when I was about 12 years old. After years of begging my mom to take me to an opera, she finally gave in and took me to this one with Utah Opera at the Janet Quinney Lawson Capitol Theatre. While she may have regretted taking me to a show with such an… um… unusual plot, I remember lovi...
There’s nothing like a feel-good, fairy-tale opera. This imaginative production of the Rossini classic sets the story in a world of toy soldiers and dolls, making it feel particularly magical.
We know what you’re probably thinking—after a long list of standard classics that are over an hour, what is a short, contemporary opera doing on this list? Hear us out. We commissioned this from composer Lisa DeSpain and librettist Rachel J. Peters as part of our cultural festival celebrating the 150th Anniversary of the Golden Spike. This 14-minut...
What I like to do is do a regular search for an opera and then use filters for 20+ minutes and if you want only results in HD you can check that box aswell. I've found some great results that way but I always make sure to download it if it looks good since some of it tends to get taken down quickly.
