We are a family here at the Royal Opera House-we live and breathe opera because we are addicted to its emotional power.” Antonio Pappano, the dynamic conductor and Music Director of the Royal Opera since 2002, offers an inside look at what it is like to work here: “Walking into this building each day knowing that I have a fantastic auditorium, world-class orchestra and chorus and all manner of exciting guest artists, I feel I am the luckiest musician on the planet. While opera ticket prices have long been associated with those at the top end of the economic bracket, today’s Royal Opera House is making a strong effort to include a wider population with many seats at each performance priced at £40 and even less. Finally, of course, it is opera and ballet that beckon people night after night to this world famous venue.
