A man alone in misery sits

His dreams have all been smashed to bits

Abandoned by the one he loves

His heart as fragile as a doves

Alone he sits inside the waste

Of mirrors smashed to hide his face.....

This was the last of the buildings constructed in the Arts and Sciences Park, opened in 2005 by Queen Sofia. Designed again by Santiago Calatrava, it is the tallest Opera House in the World with 14 stories, although from this level on the terrace the scale is hard to gauge.

 

You can't help thinking it looks like a Armoured Helmet from this angle, hence the title!

No trip to Australia would be complete without the stunning image of the Opera House from the water. The shape and form of this building (for a retired architect) are awesome.

For whatever reason this cavernous underground space seemed like it should be the stage for an epic rock opera. Lower Randolph and Columbus, Chicago, Illinois.

The "Dubai Opera" is a performing arts center located in the "Opera District".

Completed in 2016 and opened on 31 August of that year with a performance by Plácido Domingo.

The building is multifunctional and can be converted from a traditional theater into either a concert hall, banquet hall or even exhibition space. Using hydraulic lifts and seating wagons to relocate 900 of the 2,000 seats, the space can be used for events while the extra seating is stored beneath the theater. Design by Janus Rostock of Atkins, the shape shall resemble a dhow (traditional Arabic sailing vessel)

Ein Ausflug nach Wien

Alle, die keinen Urlaub machen können, mögen mich auf einer Runde durch Wien begleiten. Vorbei an den berühmten Sehenswürdigkeiten, aber vielleicht auch abseits Sehenswertes entdecken ...

Die Wiener Staatsoper ist eines der bekanntesten Opernhäuser der Welt. Die Fassaden sind im Renaissance-Bogenstil gehalten, die beiden Darstellungen über der Hauptfassade stellen zwei geflügelte Pferde dar, die von der Harmonie und der Muse der Poesie geführt werden. Im Mai 1869 wurde sie mit Mozarts Premiere von Don Giovanni eröffnet.

Die Staatsoper ist auch Schauplatz des Wiener Opernballs, der Höhepunkt der Wiener Faschingsballsaison. Er findet immer am letzten Donnerstag vor Aschermittwoch statt. Zu diesem Zweck werden die Stühle des Parterres abgebaut und ein Boden auf einem Gerüst errichtet, wodurch eine Tanzfläche von 850 m² entsteht und das Opernhaus in einen Ballsaal verwandelt wird.

 

A trip to Vienna

All those who cannot take a holiday may follow me on a tour through Vienna. Past the famous sights, but perhaps you will also discover sights worth seeing off the beaten track …

The Vienna State Opera is one of the most famous opera houses in the world. The façades are in the Renaissance arch style, the two figures above the main façade portray two winged horses led by Harmony and the Muse of Poetry. It opened in May 1869 with Mozart's premiere of Don Giovanni.

The State Opera is also the venue for the Vienna Opera Ball, the highlight of the Viennese carnival ball season. It always takes place on the last Thursday before Ash Wednesday. For this purpose, the chairs of the parterre are dismantled and a floor is erected on scaffolding, creating a dance floor of 850 m² and transforming the opera house into a ballroom.

"Green meadows, wildernesses,

You will lose the beauty."

Ruggiero, in Handel's opera "Alcina". It is a strange text. In spite of life's alchemy and magic, and even love, it turns out that oblivion is the only certainty we have got. Who would have thought that opera can be subversive? Fuji X-E3 plus portrait lens.

El teatro de marionetas, apareció en Sicilia a principios del siglo XIX y tuvo un gran éxito entre las clases populares de la isla. Los marionetistas contaban las historias basándose, en la mayoría de los casos, en la literatura caballeresca medieval, en los poemas italianos del Renacimiento, en la vida de los santos o en la de los bandidos más famosos.

Aquí, a base de mandobles Orlando derrota a todo un ejército de sarracenos que le separa de la hermosa Angélica.

Y el artífice de la obra sale a saludar.

To stand on the balcony under the glass overhang, champagne in hand, in the performance interval in the warmth of a summer evening with the sea breeze wafting over you and the smell of the sea itself as you look out across the vast space, all the harbour lights and the massive bridge, is to stand on the bow of a great ship. And to dream of eternity ...

 

There is nothing else like it.
