#OTD in 1925.
Ravel's opera L'enfant et les sortilèges (written from 1917 to 1925), to a libretto by Colette, is premiered at the Opéra de Monte-Carlo.
After being offered the opportunity to write a musical work, Colette wrote the text in eight days. Several composers had proposed to Colette that she write to music, but she was only excited by the prospect of Ravel.

yep, that’s a grief seed in the thumbnail. sayaka miki impacted me greatly growing up. that’s why i go by oktavia and use a grief seed as a symbol! she’s very important to me.
Surprised me, Sayaka really wouldn’t be my first pick! 
I always kind of disliked her… but I guess in retrospect, she did have mostly good intentions? The parable of the naïve goodie that gets too wreckless. I think I get the appeal, now.

#OTD in 1913.
Claudio Monteverdi's last opera L'incoronazione di Poppea was performed theatrically for the first time in more than 250 years.
Two versions of the musical score of L'incoronazione exist, both from the 1650s. The first was rediscovered in Venice in 1888, the second in Naples in 1930. The Naples score is linked to the revival of the opera in that city in 1651.

#OTD in 1875.
Bizet's Carmen premiered at the Opéra-Comique in Paris, with mezzo-soprano Célestine Galli-Marié in the title role. It is an opera in four acts by the French composer Georges Bizet. The libretto was written by Henri Meilhac and Ludovic Halévy, based on the novella of the same title by Prosper Mérimée.

Do you have any idea how long it takes to do custom transitions for like 70 #photos ?
About 5 hours apparently so you better like this because I deserve like 100 bucks for this if someone was paying me to make it.
I do accept donations if you're so inclined but I never expected a dime.

question: what's better than juliette greco?
answer: three juliette grecos.
the smoky-toned chanteuse & actor (interpreter of jacques brel & prevert, boris vian, charles aznavour...) was born #otd in 1927.
the OG boho certainly made a mark with her life. how could she not? jean-paul sartre declared her to have 'a million poems in her voice'.
