    Adorable, pretty well sung and of course hilarious split screen acting on this timeless classic. The excellent idea to continue creatively during the pandemic 😷 added to the spice of this performance. Mozart will never be denied!

    I know very little about Opera, but this was a really enjoyable watch. I admire you all for the hard word not just to your music and to your art form, but for the resilience you have shown to be able to put all this together remotely using phones and computers and I imagine hours and hours of clever ending! Well done guys. :-)

    Changing the subject to get away from the tedious pedantry of someone who seems to think that 18th-century music should only be exhibited and interpreted as some kind of museum piece rather than as a living resource capable of not only contemporary interpretation and reinterpretation, but also adaptation to performance space and circumstances - in this case the highly innovative technical achievement of remote performers for a remote internet audience in a digital space. For me, this Random Opera production was an oasis of delight in this dismal covid-dominated social desert we find ourselves in. Bravo to all the soloists and chorus! And well done to the production team and creatives! I enjoyed every moment. Thank you, all of you.

    Thank you so much for your words of appreciation. Lovely thought from Michael Berkeley discussing with Jools Holland whether Wagner would disapprove of a boogie stride version of the Pilgrims Chorus from Tannhäuser: “I to think nearly always one great musician likes and respects another one”. Generally musicians are generous and respectful of one another’s opinions, which is why it’s better to only take them from established musicians as opposed to internet pedants.

    This made me feel really, really down. Not for the performances, but this is a stark reminder of the fact that we're all in this storm together--some in better boats, some in worse. It also made me happy to see that good people are still creating art, making due, and sharing their passion with others. Thank you!

    I’m curious how they can hear others and sing at the same time. It’s chaos to have multiple people talking at the same time via zoom/Skype.

    They couldn't - they all had to record their parts separately!
