This one’s a bit different. COSA (Centre for Opera Study and Appreciation) have a stream of a new opera by Norbert Palej coming up. It’s called The Art of Love and it’s drawn from various works by Ovid including the obvious one but also, as best I can tell, Medicamina Faciei Femineae and Metamorphoses. It’s sung in Latin (there are subtitles for those whose Latin is less than fluent) with animations by Sean Stanley. There are two overlapping casts with some very decent singers including Ryan Downey and Alex Hajek. It’s playing tonight and the next three nights at 7.30pm with alternating casts.
