When the conductor led the opera, the singers and musicians performed their very best for the audience.

In order for the opera to be successful, each singer was donned in elaborate costumes prior to going on stage.

The singing from the opera could be heard outside the theater and even down the street.

Even though Italians are known for the opera, it was actually a Greek man named Jacopo Peri who is considered to have created the first opera.

Due to the loud singing and long production, the wife ended up dragging her husband to the opera.
