#yes it's only 2 companies but when it comes to an opera as (relatively) obscure as la rondine then it's a lot

So the Met is HD’ing La rondine with Angel Blue and Jonathan Tetelman in the upcoming 2023/2024 season(!!!!!), and Opernhaus Zürich is ALSO putting up Rondine for their 23/24 season, with Ermonela Jaho and Benjamin Bernheim!!!!!

This truly is the Year of the Swallow, huh!!

So, uhm... I’m not saying that I firmly believe that this opera is getting pretty popular nowadays because this was somehow psychically influenced by a bunch of 19-year-olds (read: us) electronically screaming about it (read: the 2009 Met production) all over Tumblr, but that’s totally what I’m saying...
