• Carmen. It has love, lust, betrayal, and revenge. If that’s not enough, the music is unforgettable as is the title character. Written by a Frenchman, Georges Bizet.
  • La Boheme by Puccini. A beautifully told bittersweet love story that will leave you in tears – guaranteed.
  • Aida by Verdi. The “grandest” of Grand Operas with much pageantry, throughout which is woven a love story involving a slave girl and a nobleman.
  • Others would include La Traviata, Marriage of Figaro, Barber of Seville, and Madama Butterfly, to name a few more. You can experience these here at Opera Maine, the Met HD broadcasts, your local library, or by picking up a CD or DVD.
