The Metropolitan Opera HD Live

 
The Met returns to the Big Screen this October with their 2023-24 season of live movie theatre transmissions. This season features an extraordinary lineup, including exciting company premieres, new productions, and classic repertory favourites, including two productions that have been in our history courses - Carmen and Madama Butterfly. This is a fun and affordable way to expose students to opera. Pick an opera and take your students on a field trip to the theatre. They will love the experience!

That Classical Podcast

 
Kelly, Sascha and Chris talk to you about classical music whilst making you laugh AND LEARN. The hosts are hilarious while being very knowledgeable. Each episode focuses on one theme or composer, with a deep dive into repertoire and various musical aspects. The podcasts ran from 2016 to 2021, so there are plenty of episodes to keep you occupied. You can find these podcasts on Spotify, Apple Music or wherever you stream your music.
