Madame asked Cornelia Funke:

Hi Cornelia! I'm a big opera fan, and I wanted to ask you... do you like opera? (If you don't, you really should try, it is as magical as your books!)

Cornelia Funke I LOVE opera, Lucia!:) One of the most magical things I ever did was writing a story for three classical musicians to connect more than a dozen of their favorite music pieces. We called it ANGELHEART and I just performed it with them and many other singers and musicians at the Festival del Sole in Napa. In Germany someone is currently writing an opera based on Dragonrider and there is another one based on Ghostknight:)

Can I ask why you don't communicate on twitter anymore, Cornelia? Is it because some people have been rude? (I sincerely hope it's not because of this!)
