How did opera change since it started?
Opera itself has not changed that much. People still dress up, go to the opera, and the dominant demographic is still people over 40. The music in the operas, however, has changed drastically since the early operas of the Baroque Era. I could write a novel about the shift in operatic music from the Baroque Era to Classical to Romantic and then to 20th Century and post-modern repertoire. But, audiences still seem to receive operas well regardless of what time they were composed.

Time to Say Goodbye lyrics in English by Sarah brightman?
Sarah:
When I'm alone I dream of the horizon and words fail me.
There is no light in a room where there is no sun
and there is no sun if you're not here with me, with me.
From every window unfurls my heart the heart that you have won.
Into me you've poured the light,
the light that you found by the side of the road.
Time to say goodbye.

Now I shall, I'll sail with you upon ships across the seas,
seas that exist no more,
it's time to say goodbye.
Andrea:
When you're far away I dream of the horizon and words fail me.
And of course I know that you're with me, with me.
You, my moon, you are with me.
My sun, you're here with me with me, with me, with me.
Time to say goodbye.
Places that I've never seen or experienced with you.
Now I shall, I'll sail with you upon ships across the seas,
seas that exist no more,
Both:
I'll revive them with you.
I'll go with you upon ships across the seas,
seas that exist no more,
I'll revive them with you.
I'll go with you.
You and me.

The facial make-ups date back to the Song Dynasty (960-1279) as simple patterns of painted faces are found in tomb murals of that age. Improvements have been continually made in the skills of drawing and in preparing the paints, leading to the whole set of colourful facial patterns - for example see today's Jingju (Beijing Opera).
