When I saw the Walkure live at the MET in row L main floor, I was upset the first act because until midway we only saw the characters from the waist up. I kept worrying are they going to do this for the entire opera. It was all actually much better in HD. I was intrigued by the comment and agree that the scenes look much better in photographs than in real life. This was also true for the LA Opera's Ring. The static photos were beautiful but from the audience you saw the sometimes cheap materials and all the imperfections There is little the LePage machine does that stage set and projections couldn't do.
