“The company’s chorus alone could power an aircraft carrier for a week at sea…” – Justin Davidson, Vulture
“The stars of the night, however, were the larger ensembles. The Met chorus always seems to be in a world of its own.” – David Salazar, Operawire
“The Met chorus sounded more splendid than ever…” – James Jorden, Observer

History of Opera: Up Close

With composer/professor Whitney George as our guide, seven Met Chorus Artists will take us through the history of opera, accompanied by the fantastic Derrick Goff. Arias, duets, and ensembles from every operatic era will weave through the lecture, letting you experience opera up close, perhaps even changing the way you listen to this art form.
