		Officially, an Opera, or "drama per musica", is "a drama, either tragic or comic, that is wholly or mostly sung with orchestral accompaniment, appropriate costumes, scenery, and action." Opera is a dramatic piece that is sung that really doesn't have an official beginning.

		City Opera's pairing of Ravel's whimsical operas "L'Heure Espagnole" and "L'Enfant et les Sortileges" is Sendak-inspired silliness.

		The New York City Opera first paired the two works nine years ago, and we have waited too long for a revival.
