Bravo! An opera about the housing crisis

Really. It’s true. They’ve come up with an operatic score based on Case-Shiller Housing Index data.

It should have been called “Phantom of the Subprime” or maybe the “2008 Overture.” But they settled for “Decades of U.S. Housing Prices.”

Update: Here’s the NPR story and recording. Short, silly and stupid. And funny.
