\"LunchBox-Diversions\"<\/a>Music moves you. It inspires, transmitting emotions and power without even understanding the language. That’s what opera feels like to me, but I feel like I’d really like to know more. That’s where Adrian comes in..<\/p>\n

For the past 20 years, Adrian Park<\/strong> has hosted Diversions<\/strong>, a weekly show dedicated to highlighting great classical performances. For the last 15 years, he has also extended his show by an hour each summer to present his Opera Series<\/strong>, in which he plays some of his favourite operas along a theme.<\/p>\n

Adrian joined me on the Lunchbox, and shared with me his vision of a great opera, opera as the root of all modern movie soundtracks, and a piece from his favourite opera of the season.<\/p>\n

BONUS:<\/strong> Adrian also wrote an article for the blog section of CHSR. Check it out: “So, Just What Is Opera?”<\/a><\/p>\n
