somehow I was compartmentalizing the fact that the greek shipping magnate maria callas had an affair with was in fact aristotle onassis of jackie kennedy onassis. how are there not 3-5 stage plays or possibly operas by gay men about these two women being in the same room

why do I leave 2am virtual sticky notes in my Sibelius file that just say "needs more Shakuntala". Past me, what did you mean I should compose?
Like... as in the song from the song cycle Into the Fire. Needs more... whatever that is, needs that in the piece.
#guess I'll just listen to shakuntala and see wtf I actually meant#this is not the song of that cycle that made me cry in the concert hall#that's the one after shakuntala#but STILL#ngl 90% of the reason I started crying was Joyce DiDonato at 10m from my face singing about Sad Things

If La traviata was a German opera, Alfredo’s name would have been Heinz.

the dynamic between two people who love a third person so much and come to understand each other because of that is so important to me. you would put them first, and so would i. you understand why we have to save them from themself. i trust you with their life, and so, that means more than if i trusted you with mine. the love doesn't have to be the same, but it's powerful enough that you understand why you're not the only satellite drawn into their orbit.
#THAT 2014 PRODUCTION OF LE COMTE ORY??#if you look into it wayyyy too much like me heheh#oh shit I still need to post the 66k word fanfic#the page reblogs#opera#le comte ory

PLease....
Which opera house is going to allow @itsa-me-cavaradossi and me to put on our modern-set Tosca konzept with a genderswapped Scarpia played by Joyce DiDonato as a horrifying Giorgia Meloni figure?
#do you - do you need another conceptor? a conductor? I'm a composer by trade but I've fulfilled many roles 🥺#tosca#joyce didonato#please let her play evil people again#it's been so long#her recent Winterreise broke me in another way though#the page reblogs

every opera production would be made funnier/possibly better if you had one of the characters give a powerpoint presentation

more men should be on their knees begging desperately. like in general
#“Pour obtenir sa grace s'il tombait vos genoux. Madame que feriez-vous?”#he (MET 2011 Ory) has a thing for it#the sheer ... everything emotion in his voice at that line#is it desperately wanting her to like him? Is it lust? Is it wanting to draw her out of her self induced seclusion? all of them!#le comte ory#the page reblogs
