Why do these Posters for the Met's Don Giovanni remind me of Pirates of the Caribbean? 😅 Opera Houses have really gotten A LOT more modern over the last few years. They really got a Hollywood poster movie style to them now.

Hannibal's Opera Taste

Recently I have been listening and learning more about opera and it has made me curious about what operas Hannibal would like.

First one is Alban Berg's Wozzeck, it has this slightly off sound when you listen to it; it can be more complex considering one of the early statements in it is that it is easy to be moral when you are rich

Another one I think he would like is Rite of Spring by Igor Stravinsky, especially if you consider the riot that happened when it first was performed. This one is a ballet, but my point still stands

Some i feel are more obvious, Dido and Aeneas, Barber of Seville, and Don Giovanni

If i am completely honest there are a lot of operas that could fit the bill, especially if one of the conditions you consider is tragedy

Some of them sound a bit more classic opera, while others are a bit more strange sounding and i feel that fits

Might make more if i think of ones that would really fit
