Description

Karen Stone has retired from the Aalto Theater Essen after 23 years of opera prompting - a job that many opera fans might not know exists.  An opera prompter is key to the success of any performance. Stone is a Canadian flute player with a McGill education, and an affinity for languages. This episode is for all who are interested in opera—both those on stage and in the audience. 

All episodes of The Opera Glasses podcast are hosted by the editor of Opera Canada, currently Michael Jones after Elizabeth Bowman hosted seasons 1 and 2. Follow Opera Canada on Instagram, Twitter, Facebook and Visit OperaCanada.ca for all of your Canadian Opera news and reviews.
