Peter Gelb in 2022

General Manager of the Met Opera and definitely a real person existing in 2022

I would like to alert the ppl sending serious tweets to this account that it is a PARODY (but also, fuck Anna N)

Honored and humbled to announce that Mark Schlissel will be the inaugural Met Opera’s James Levine Endowed Ethics Chair

Going to get vulnerable for a moment: I am suffering from Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD), a type of seasonal depression.

It’s associated with the fact that my orchestra has returned to having a season.

[Peter Gelb in 2022 @gelb_x]

It’s been a while but I have returned and I regret to inform my loyal followers that my orchestra is back to work and is being paid again.

[Peter Gelb in 2022 @gelb_x]

I am already a millionaire and have continued my career not paying my musicians

[Peter Gelb in 2022 @gelb_x]

If you had a lot of cash saved from not paying your employees, would you start paying your employees or just blow all the money on a rocket trip with Richard Branson? Asking for a friend

Now that it’s no longer pride month the Met Opera will only be streaming the Catalogue Aria from Don Giovanni

I just want to thank all of my loyal pride month fans on the last day of pride month before I say “bye gay”

Happy Father’s Day to Met Opera daddy-in-residence Yannick Nézet-Séguin

My apologies for the previous tweet; we have since learned that the opera is about a cave, not a cage

[Peter Gelb in 2022 @gelb_x]

So excited for next season when we will be putting on a production of Steve Reich’s THE CAGE at The Met. See below for preview of set design.

Please tune in tomorrow at 7 PM for a live stream of “The Hot Neighbor’s Chorus” from Offenbach’s “La jolie parfumeuse”

@TheValerieHalla Like we all have to make sacrifices. Like how my friend Brad out in LA cut health insurance benefits for all his employees so that he could still manage to put $57,000 toward retirement this past year. It was a sacrifice, not his own necessarily, but a sacrifice nonetheless.

[Peter Gelb in 2022 @gelb_x]

@TheValerieHalla So what you might not consider is that once you’ve had multiple homes, you can’t really go back to having a single home, like at this point it’s basically an essential expense. Like you wouldn’t ask someone who has experienced first class to go back to economy.

Five years ago, 49 people were slaughtered at Pulse nightclub in an act that sits at the intersection of homophobia, transphobia, racism, and gun violence. Queer people still cannot exist safely in our own spaces. #Pulse5YearsLater

[Peter Gelb in 2022 @gelb_x]

People often levy this complaint at me due to my relationship with Anna Netrebko

I don't trust people who like white chocolate.

[Peter Gelb in 2022 @gelb_x]

@EmeryKerekes Straight tone is allowed in that context because it’s offset by the inherent queerness of the sackbut
