It’s a New Met. Get Over It.

THE METROPOLITAN OPERA opened its 126th season on Monday — Peter Gelb’s third as general manager but the first over which he has had complete control — with Puccini’s “Tosca,” one of the sturdiest and most beloved war horses in the operatic stable. This was very good news if you were the sort of traditionalist Met fan who could happily watch the old Italian repertory — “Tosca,” “Turandot,” “Madama Butterfly” — over and over again, and are not looking forward to offerings later this season like Janacek’s “From the House of the Dead,” an almost plotless opera set in a Siberian labor camp, or “The Nose,” Shostakovich’s adaptation of a story about a man who doesn’t have one."
