At the Met Opera Club with harpist Emmanuel Ceysson

What to do the morning of an HD broadcast of Rusalka? Why learn about the opera and listen to harpist Emmanuel Ceysson of course!

There is so much going on at the Metropolitan Opera and Saturday was no different! Even before the two performances (Rusalka matinee and I Puritani evening) the lobby was filled with beautiful music as the Met Opera Club met for their weekly brunch with special guest Emmanuel Ceysson. Luckily, Elizabeth George was on the scene to give an update on the event as our chorus correspondent ("chorus-pondent" if you will!)

After opening La Traviata last night, waking up early for a cup o' joe at the beautiful Metropolitan Opera Club was WELL worth it! We had the pleasure of listening to world-renowned harpist, Emmanuel Ceysson, who is also the Principal Harpist with The Met Opera Orchestra. Best. Morning. Ever! 

Spending time with The Met Opera Club members was joy. This incredibly supportive and kind group of opera lovers are some of our biggest fans. What a treat!  We look forward to spending more time with them in the very near future!
