Thankful for L.A. Opera
- Share via
Bravo! L.A. Times for “A Generation of L.A. Opera Singers Comes of Age” by Jan Breslauer (Oct. 15). I am a huge fan of L.A. Opera and it’s about time that the company and its artists get the exposure they deserve.
L.A. Opera is truly a gem and deserves more attention than it is receiving. That is why I was pleasantly surprised when I turned to the Calendar section and saw the familiar faces of Rodney Gilfry, Suzanna Guzman, Greg Fedderly and Hector Vasquez.
Opera is alive and kicking, but the general public is not aware of this. Nowadays, opera is viewed as an old-fashioned and elitist art form, but indeed it is not! And I am living proof for I am only a senior in high school, and I have a deep appreciation for opera despite my age.
Yes, I must say that it is a little daunting when I attend opera performances at the Dorothy Chandler Pavilion in the midst of an elderly audience. But that certainly does not stop me from going and encouraging my friends at school to give opera a chance.
Thank you again for the article on the local L.A. Opera artists. It certainly made my day.
