The Metropolitan Opera has announced its 2024-25 season. This time, in my opinion, it's a better season, even though baroque and bel canto genres, as well as important composers like Wagner and Donizetti, are missing. If I had to pick my top three performances I am most looking forward to, they would be "Salome," "Die Frau ohne Schatten," and "Pique Dame" with amazing casts and/or productions. What are your thoughts on the new season?
