This was my first experience whatchng the Met Opera in HD. I was disappointed with the audio and video feed.
However I was thrilled with the performances of all lead and supporting characters. I had heard the Met put on lavish productions and was happily surprised tht this was true. It was a wonderful production.
One other thing. When I arrived at the complex, i was told that seating would not take place until 15 mnutes before the performance began. However at 12:30, the theater was 3/4 full. It would have been helpful to know the correct seating time so we could have obtained a better seat.
