Though some dismiss opera as oldfashioned, it shows no sign of disappearing from the worlds stage. So why do audiences continue to flock to it? Given its association with wealth, one might imagine that opera tickets function as a status symbol. But while a desire to hobnob with the upper crust might motivate the occasional operagoer, for hardcore fans the real answer, according to The Opera Fanatic, is passionthey do it for love.Opera lovers are an intense lot, Claudio E. Benzecry discovers in his look at the fanatics who haunt the legendary Coln Opera House in Buenos Aires, a key site for operas globalization. Listening to the fans and their stories, Benzecry hears of twohundredmile trips for performances and nightlong campouts for tickets, while others testify to a particular operas power to move themwhether to song or to tearsno matter how many times they have seen it before. Drawing on his insightful analysis of these acts of love, Benzecry proposes new ways of thinking about peoples relationship to art and shows how, far from merely enhancing aspects of everyday life, art allows us to transcend it.
