Specifically social media, Internet downloads, video hosting sites like Youtube, smartphones and even changes in basic coding has allowed today's opera composers to truly write great operas without the cost and complexities of a traditional stage opera.  Composer Sabrina Pena Young Discusses Online Opera Production at TEDxBuffalo As a composer, I still prefer live performance and the grandiose splendor of a live theatrical production . However, with economic and social barriers that have limited my access (and many contemporary composers')...
