These teachings have introduced me to a love of opera and classical music as I am sure it has many others, for this could be the byproduct of working to awaken consciousness. I think having a page on this site like the beautiful 'gnostics' page but for the great composers and a brief explaining of the symbols in these great masters operas would be greatly beneficial and inspiring to novices like myself who can't comprehend the symbols as deeply. But with this suggestion, if you could do me the favor of explaining some of the symbols of these operas for I plan on seeing them soon. :D

Richard Strauss :Die Frau ohne Schatten (a lot of symbols here, the shadow, the falcon etc.)
Giacomo Puccini: Madama Butterfly

I know you could have a whole lecture on each, so brief explanations would suffice, so I may be given the eyes to see and the ears to hear beyond the exoteric forms. Peace and infinite thanks.

Chicago Gnosis will do a lecture series on Madam Butterfly (they have one on Turandot below). Also, Glorian has a course on Wagner's Ring Cycle. :)
