On this first summery weekend, La Cieca hopes you will all enjoy the balmy weather; but, if you must, there’s chat, and quite a lot to chat about there is too!

Operas broadcast on the internet this afternoon include such novelties as La Muette de Portici, Orlando furioso, Atys, Medea in Corinto, Cardillac, A Midsummer Night’s Dream, Francesca da Rimini and The Mikado, plus starry revivals of Macbeth (Thomas Hampson/Nadja Michael), La forza del destino (Zubin Mehta), Aïda (Sondra Radvanovsky)  and Werther (Rolando Villazon).

For links to all these internet radio broadcasts, please visit the invaluable Operacast, and then sharpen your conversational skills at La Casa della Cieca.
