Welcome to Celebrate Poe - Episode 397- Leaves of Music - Part One

Before getting into Whitman’s literary output in earnest, I would like to have at least two episodes about Walt Whitman, and what is often seen as a controversial and sometimes even unfamiliar art form - Opera. 

First I'd like to begin, with a recent incident that has stayed in my mind since it occurred. A kind friend - who I will call John - offered to take my other half and myself to an opera. We know that he was an opera buff, and we're very eager to see what we thought was a local production of the marriage of Figaro.
