So April is Giulio Cesare month at the Met, since -- apart from the Saturday radio broadcast / HD transmission on the 27th -- they are (according to their schedule) audiostreaming live performances on the 4th, the 9th, and the 22nd. Start times vary, so check the schedule. In between those last two we get a 2nd cast Rigoletto (Gagnidze, Oropesa, Grigolo), and all this, I'm guessing, to avoid overexposing the Ring for once.
Meanwhile, Les Arts Florissants brings Charpentier's David et Jonathas to BAM April 17 - 21. Ticket availability at this point is a bit better than it should be, so if you're in the tri-state that week and think this French baroque thing is behavior that should be encouraged, don't be leaving it all to Handel.
