N2 - In opera, the drama typically unfolds with transgressions against the law or social norms. Legal conflict and crime are important devices used to hold audience interest. Opera embodies a rich combination of acting and song, orchestral music, stage architecture, and a plethora of other dramaturgical devices. The emotional connotations of lawbreaking are laid bare like in no other form of art. The overwhelming effect on the audience may well balance out the pronounced artificiality of this form of art and leave a lasting message. Its content will depend on factors identified in the law and popular culture literature. Character development and legal-political message are key to what opera teaches an audience. Today, audio-visual recordings are the prevailing form of opera consumption. To do justice to the complexity of socio-legal aspects in opera, we suggest methods making use of recorded opera.
