TheCaw is a proud American and believes that English is the best language in the world but hates to say that Italian German and yes French operas are better then English
Maybe TheCaw is to familiar with the English language that the libretto dialog sounds stilted but it doesn’t make sense because regular songs in English are way better than songs in other languages to me but operas not the case
Maybe it was just the specific opera with English words I saw sucks but in general it seems those fruity European Romance languages are better for the opera art form
WRONG!
ALL operas suck. I would rather be waterboarded than forced to listen to that Godawful caterwauling.
BTW.....music board.

You know why?
English has far fewer words that end in a vowel.
(Opera being one of them, but that's a loan word.)

Opera singing is devoted to displays of technical virtuosity
Italian words generally end in vowels
Vowels are easier to sing & hold than consonants
Ergo, Italian is the language of opera

American opera composed in the 80s. It's fantastic.
It’d be like waking up one morning and having SirWinston, Mingo, Coyote, and Hammertime as brothers-in-law.

My dad took years of German from our next door neighbor who was from the area of Bayreuth (same dialect as Wagner) just so he could enjoy Wagnerian opera without a libretto.
Yeah, he was a fan...
