Beethoven Symphony No. 9, conducted by Riccardo Muti   May 1

On May 7, 1824, Ludwig van Beethoven’s monumental Symphony No. 9 in D Minor was premiered at the Kärntnertortheater in Vienna. To celebrate the 200th anniversary of one of the greatest moments in classical music history, Maestro Riccardo Muti and the Vienna Philharmonic perform Beethoven's Ninth, his final complete symphony, at the Vienna Musikverein on the day of the premiere. Muti has studied the score of the beloved "Choral" Symphony for 50 years and proves himself to be “the best connoisseur of the Viennese sound, perfectly balanced in internalized expression, in beguiling colours” (Kronenzeitung). Joined by the Wiener Singverein as well as the exquisite soloists Julia Kleiter, Marianne Crebassa, Michael Spyres and Günther Groissböck, this performance is a momentous occasion befitting the anniversary of this highly significant piece of music. The concerto is also a tribute to the memorable premiere 200 years ago in terms of the instrumentation, as it was played by the orchestra of the Kärntnertortheater, the former court opera theater – the predecessors of today’s Vienna Philharmonic.

                              2024       Runtime:   83 Minutes 

Turandot  - Vienna State Opera    May 21

At the Vienna State Opera, Claus Guth stages Puccini’s last opera as a chamber drama of timeless topicality – far removed from all the Chinoiserie clichés and with shooting star Asmik Grigorian and audience favourite Jonas Kaufmann in the two leading roles. For soprano Asmik Grigorian, the role is a debut and she succeeds brilliantly. "Her singing reveals a woman’s soul” (Die Presse). In contrast, the foreign prince appears less as a swashbuckling conqueror than as a sensitive companion who reaches out his hand to a woman struggling with her demons. The role of Calaf is also a stage debut for tenor Jonas Kaufmann. He sings the famous aria “Nessun dorma” “with the greatest sensitivity” (Salzburger Nachrichten), “he is in his element in the top notes, his velvety timbre is convincing in every register”. (Der Standard). Conductor Marco Armiliato “delights with the unleashed splendour of Puccini’s sound” (Falter).

                             2023    Runtime:  140 Minutes

Thanks for the Instructions @OneDayMatisyahu . 

One question before I look into installing the App.  Are the dates and times 'Cast in Stone' like broadcast T.V.?  Or are they flexible like Streaming Services...i.e. Once it is made available it remains available for some time before it gets aged off?

...Nevermind...Read the FAQ:

10.  I can't make it at the scheduled date and time, can I watch later? No. The movie is only available at the scheduled date and time, it is not available on demand.

Not sure why, but this post is titled, 'Re: Watch - Pretty Woman - Film - March 23,' not 'Everything Everywhere All at Once- May 19' (saw this in the theater, and it's FANTASTIC!).' 🤔

Anyway, just letting you know. 🙂
