[edit] Candidate for 2 separate articles?
Like the Royal Opera House and the Royal Opera, London, which distinguish between the "company" aspect and the "theatre" aspect, this article might well be divided into two. There's plenty more to be said about each of the houses.

I have been thinking this for a while. Probably it should eventually be 3 articles, Company, Old House and New House. I think we can wait a while, the whole article is still pretty thin considering what we are talking about. I intend on working on it further, the Company history especially. I'd also like to do details on the production history (Directors/Designers). Do you think the list of "Notable Conductors" is just a little bit random?

- It might not need THREE articles: Houses #1 and #2 might be combined - both are/were the "Metropolitan Opera House", but I agree with the principle.
- I broke up the article to create "Old" and "New", but quite a bit of expansion is certainly in order.... Please add more info - we need it... THEN let's figure it out....

[edit] MTC Awards inclusion
Surely, this is hardly worthwhile.
See my comment when editing: "MTV Music Awards barely relevant here (the MET is used for other things too), and certainly NOT in the "Company" section. We'll leave it for now to see if others will tolerate".

See my reversation of someone's changes back - and comments.

[edit] Conductors
I thought this section made more sense if it was called "Principal Conductors." There were many "notable" conductors at the Met, but these were ones who had continuing responsibility for the repertoire and the orchestra. Markhh 07:32, 2 March 2007 (UTC)
- It makes perfect sense to me. Viva-Verdi 18:08, 2 March 2007 (UTC)
