Lost Music: Exploring Literary Opera

Lost Music: Exploring Literary Opera

by

An exciting new podcast by Marc Eliot Stein of Literary Kicks. Why is opera relevant today? This sometimes-lost art form hides a fascinating, vibrant world. In our first episode, we discuss whether Verdi’s Otello is better than Shakespeare’s Othello, whether Othello had PTSD, and what it means that Mozart’s Le Nozze di Figaro is an Italian opera by a German Austrian and a Venetian Jew based on a French play that takes place in Spain. Welcome to the first episode of Lost Music: Exploring Literary Opera!
