Mozart: La Clemenza di Tito at the Met with Pre-Opera Dinner

Hello,

Here is another oportunity to get together and enjoy an evening of singing with a great opera by Mozart!: La Clemenza di Tito. This is Mozart's last opera (as The Magic Flute was mostly written by the time he took the commision for La Clemenza, to be completed in 3 weeks!), and has beautiful music.

For those interested, we will meet for dinner at 6.20 PM at:

La Fenice Restaurante
2012 Broadway
(@ 69th St)
New York, NY

Reservation is under the name Opera Group/ Nestor.

See the restaurant in a map ---> HERE

We will be there at 6.15 pm, to start dinner 6.20 pm. We will leave the restaurant at 7.30-7.40 pm to arrive at the Met in time for the start of "La Clemenza de Tito" at 8 pm.

Please kindly SPECIFICALLY STATE IN YOUR RSVP, in the "Please add a comment" box, where you would join us: "yes for dinner and opera" or just "yes for opera", so I can include you (or not) in the restaurant reservation. When arriving at the restaurant, please ask for our group´s table or for Nestor.

OPERA STARTS AT 8 pm and runs until 10:50 pm (approximate ending, with intermission/s). For this performance, there still are seats available in almost all sections. You can easily purchase any of these online or at the box office.

PLEASE SEE OUR MESSAGE BOARD FOR DETAILS ON HOW TO GET THE "TWO FOR ONE" TICKETS.

WHERE TO MEET DURING INTERMISSIONS:

Meeting point during intermissions is exactly where the arrow is pointing, on the FIRST FLOOR, right under the red CHAGALL MURAL. Go to the level that leads out onto the outside balcony. If you are facing the Lincoln Center Plaza, there will be a wine bar on your right, and the red Chagall mural will be above it. During intermission/s you will find us right next to the door exiting to the outside balcony (see photo).

You will be able to recognize me because I will be wearing the NEW New York Opera Meetup badge:
