Opera? Or ‘Opera-ganda’?: Fairfield U. lecture explores role of music in politics By Amanda Cuda © Provided by Connecticut Post Fairfield University music lecturer Michael A. Ciavaglia will host the virtual event ‘Russian Opera-ganda’ at 1 p.m. Feb. 17. Michael A. Ciavaglia doesn’t like reducing complicated pieces of classical music to cliches, but when it comes to the impact of opera and film scores on Russian nationalism, the cliche is too true to avoid. “Music makes us feel something,” says Ciavaglia, a lecturer in music at Fairfield University. He says, over the centuries, a variety of governments, including those in the United States, as well as Russia, have used music to inspire a sense of loyalty in their citizens.
