Parterre Box (often stylized as parterre box) is an online magazine devoted to opera, about which it cultivates a campy, critical, strongly opinionated attitude with explicit gay overtones. The publication was founded by the New Yorker James Jorden in 1993 during a period of under-employment as an opera director. It appeared bimonthly from 1993 to 2001 in print form, but it is now solely published on the Web, where it is considered an influential opera blog. From 2009-13, Jorden contributed opera reviews to the New York Post.

  • Parterre Box (often stylized as parterre box) is an online magazine devoted to opera, about which it cultivates a campy, critical, strongly opinionated attitude with explicit gay overtones. The publication was founded by the New Yorker James Jorden in 1993 during a period of under-employment as an opera director. It appeared bimonthly from 1993 to 2001 in print form, but it is now solely published on the Web, where it is considered an influential opera blog. In May 2005, Jorden introduced the first regular opera podcast entitled "Unnatural Acts of Opera." For this show, Jorden takes on the drag persona of "La Cieca", a gossipy commentator. La Cieca introduces a single act of what she calls "demented" opera, concentrating on exciting live vocal performances from around 1950 to the present. The podcasts appear to have ended in 2009 and were apparently available through various services including iTunes as well as in streaming form on the parterre.com website. A highlight of the 2006 season of "Unnatural Acts of Opera" was the first podcast ever of Richard Wagner's four-opera cycle Der Ring des Nibelungen, an event Jorden termed "Podderdammerung". Jorden has also contributed a number of opera video clips to YouTube, concentrating on his favorite divas, including Renata Scotto, Leonie Rysanek and Dame Gwyneth Jones. From 2009-13, Jorden contributed opera reviews to the New York Post. (en)
