La Traviata
Tonight we will be attending the Seattle Opera’s performance of La Traviata at McCaw Hall. This year’s subscription is for all but the final opera; I simply couldn’t get excited about seeing Amelia although I hear it’s quite good. So, it’s all Verdi for us this year.
Since being entirely renovated, McCaw Hall is a fabulous venue and is flattering to unamplified vocal performances. It will be especially interesting to hear this evening’s performance given the challenging score. I’ll resist the urge to provide a tweetcast throughout the evening…
