The Metropolitan Opera and Lee Expressive Arts team up!

I am very excited!  Tomorrow I will be boarding a plane for my first trip ever to New York.  This is part of a grant to bring opera into our schools!  Last year our students were invited to see La Cenerentola by Rossini in HD at the Forum 8 theaters after many lessons and participating in a google hangout with Joyce DiDonato http://joycedidonato.com/ This year we have the wonderful opportunity to see The Merry Widow featuring Renée Fleming.  For those of you who do not recognize that name, she sang the National Anthem for the Super Bowl this past winter!  I look forward to learning more and sharing with you! I also feel so blessed to be a part of this education OPERA-tunity!  Now, I must pack!  What would you make sure to pack if you were going to the Opera in New York this week?
