Significant hurdles remain for many of Mr. Gelb’s plans. Adding Sunday performances wouldrequire the agreement of the Met’s work force and its powerful unions, whose relationships withMr. Gelb were badly strained during last year’s labor talks, and whose members already workpunishing schedules during the opera season. Expanding the Met’s lobby into the LincolnCenter plaza would require successful fund-raising as well as the approval of the center’sadministration and, possibly, the city. And traditionalists may shudder at the idea of a newname for the opera house, known for more than a century as the Metropolitan Opera — aninternationally recognized classic along the lines of the Teatro alla Scala, the Royal Opera Houseor, closer to home, Yankee Stadium.

盖尔布的很多计划都面临着巨大的障碍。周日增加演出必须获得歌剧院工作人员和强大的工会的同意。在去年的劳资谈判中，他们和盖尔布的关系变得非常紧张。此外，工作人员的在演出季的日程已经非常艰苦。把大都会歌剧院的大堂延伸至林肯中心广场需要成功筹款，并获得林肯中心管理层甚至纽约市政府的同意。保守主义者可能不敢给歌剧院重新命名。大都会歌剧院这个名字已经存在一个多世纪了，是国际知名的经典剧院，与斯卡拉歌剧院(Teatro alla Scala)、英国皇家歌剧院(Royal Opera House)或纽约本地的洋基体育场(YankeeStadium)齐名。
