According to the Bavarian State Opera, there were 459,000 views of yesterday's live streamed Don Carlo, starring Jonas Kaufmann, Rene Pape and Anja Harteros. That's not far short of the number of physical visitors to the opera house in a whole year.
The figure compares with 77,000 a couple of weeks ago for L'Elisir d'Amore, Munich's first venture into streaming.
