Stop At: Wiener Staatsoper, Opernring 2, Vienna 1010 Austria
Vienna has always been the city of music, and the musical heart of the country is the State Opera. Built 150 years ago, it caused a great scandal that even resulted in the death of an architect... We will see the very pompous old part and the modern part, built after the Second World War. We will talk about the stars who had great success on stage, such as Placido Domingo, Montserrat Caballé, Jose Carreras, Gustav Mahler, Herbert von Karajan, Rudolf Nureyev, and Margot Fonteyn. I will explain how the Opera Ball is celebrated, with the participation of millionaires and local politicians, how the stage sets change daily, where they are stored, and how many people in total work for this famous institution. It's going to be very interesting, I promise!
