At the table tonight the question came up: "If you could have any composer living or dead create an opera with a modern character or story, who would it be and which?" My wife came up with the best of the evening: Verdi and Douglas MacArthur. Shakespeare would have fun with him too.

I though Wagner would have fun with Dante's Inferno, if he could figure a way of shoehorning "redemption through human love" in there somehow.
Fat chance! The rules of Dante's Inferno would negate that in a hurry.
