OperaNow!

I love opera now. It is always lots of fun and very informative. If you like opera, this podcast is a must listen.

My favorite of all the podcasts I follow; the best opera podcast and a really great podcast in general.

A pleasure to listen to these guys bluntly dissect recent events in opera and beyond. A pleasure to hear “niche” pronounced correctly. Will they stay back? Pretty please!

Adding to my original review: the show is coming to an end and I'm thankful for the hours of banter and conversation. It's kept me entertained and helped me endure long hours of work while also encouraging me to go to any live opera show I could attend. It gave sense to my stint in NY, the backstory to the Gelb years, George Steele and the collapse of NYC Opera. I still have no clue what coloratura is, but I don't care, Oliver's Corner giving me a cheatsheet to shows. And the special moments like when Michael lost it, the Christmas specials, etc. go listen to it all! Thanks guys! You'll be missed. My original review: A great show with enjoyable banter and discussion regarding opera in the news and the analysis of opera recordings. The audio quality is great (except for the first few episodes when things were kicking off) and so is the content. Nothing out there compares to it regarding opera. It makes attending live operas way more fun for me as an untrained afficionado.
