J,If you are not a Verdi fan then Falstaff might be a bad start. Falstaff is not strong on "big tunes". Verdi made a quite Wagnerian decision to through compose this final opera, giving it fewer set pieces than his other works. My advice is to arrive at Falstaff via other Verdi masterpieces. Suggest Rigoletto, La Traviata, Aida, the Requiem (a sort of operatic setting), Othello and then Falstaff. Could be expensive!! Whatever you do, don't allow Verdi to pass you by completely, but take your time. If, however, you are a fan of such works as Wagner's "The Mastersingers", then go straight to Falstaff.
