Robert Tuggle, Director of Archives for the Metropolitan Opera, has announced a migration of the company’s supremely useful online database to a new software system. He’s looking for ideas for “new features that might improve on a system that we are already pleased with.”

La Cieca now asks you, cher public, for your thoughts on how this opera queen’s favorite tool might be made even more handy. She’ll start the ball rolling by suggesting that each page of results should be accessible by a unique URL so that a specific performance or list of performances can be linked or embedded from external sites (such as our own little parterre.com).

Offer your ideas in the comments section, cher public, and La Cieca will forward them to the terrific Mr. Tuggle.
