Triumphal March from Verdi's Aida.
Just look at the SCALE of this thing.
Real horses, not real slaves, costumes, sets, dancers/choreography, stage direction--the singers, the orchestra, the conductor, the director, the lighting--and so on. Each performer and extra must also have at least one extra costume.
Only a great and wealthy city like New York can have a great opera house like this.
Just imagine the prep areas backstage.
And this segment is only about 5-6 minutes long.
No wonder the Exec. Manager of the Met is so powerful.
It is a virtual city.
