Crash Courses

Crash Courses delve into the musical highlights of the featured opera, giving beginner and intermediate readers the tools to explore the intricate workings of a score and experience a new way of listening to opera. Learn more about how a composer tells a story in music and about important historical events and artistic movements that influenced each opera’s creation. Add a score-desk seat to a performance at the Met and turn your study into a full day of learning, listening, and experiencing opera. All classes take place before a corresponding performance for each featured opera, and annotated piano-vocal scores are provided as part of the class ticket price. Beginner-level ability to read music is recommended.

Please note that the workshops for Otello and Tannhäuser will only include
annotated selections from the piano-vocal scores, due to the operas’ length.
