Week 2 at the Online Opera: Wagner Week

I am doing a copy and paste from the Met site for those who are wondering what week 2 at the metopera.com site is streaming.  

A week of Wagner.  Fabulous

Eric and Catherine and George and Kathy Jarvis went to Germany to hear Wagner last summer.  Here is another chance to enjoy him all week.  


All week and in the comfort of your own home.

Already I can hear the thick harmonies coming.  Check out this Guardian Review as well.
