Opera

I´m hopelessly devoted to opera:) What´s your favourite ones? Or just preferred arias?

I love Verdi´s Aida, Nabucco or some heavier repertoire such as Wagner. My favourite aria is e.g. O mio babinno carro by Puccini, or Vissi d´arte from Tosca 

Hey!!!! Finally someone with a nice topic here!!!

Aida – Verdi, Chorus of Hebrew slaves-Verdi, Carmen-Bizet, Guilherme Tell-Rossini, Don Giovanni – W A Mozart… etc… I love requien of Mozart too…

Nice topic, I loved it…

Thank you really. I´ve been in love with classical music since I was a child. I was raised in society of classical studied musicians and now, I study opera singing in conservatory. 

Very nice, I love music too… I heard very classical musics when I was a little child in Sao Paulo. Today, I dont listening to the classical music all the time. But today I cant live without music, all the time I am listen smth…

I play guitar n sing in church… LOL very nice.

See you, boy! Good luck with the study in conservatory!

Thanks. When I was younger, I wanted to play the guitar but I had to take a singing and flute lessons. But I am always glad when someone is also performer. Music is the hardest art to know, understand, feel and share. Enjoy it whenver you can:)

Operetta is less serious for me. But it is a kind of relax:) I really like Lehar´s ones:)

I was on Carmen by Bizet yesterday. Such an amazing, incredible performance. Carmen was acted by Jolana Fogašová, one of the bst mezzosopranos. I really like her timbre. Tenor role sung by Lehotský was sometimes flat but I enjoyed it:)

Netrebko has a weak voice but beautiful timbre. Cecilia is the best mezzo, no doupt about it! :) Thank you for sharing ;)

I think this is the real "Puccini" soprano

I love La Traviata by Verdi and Carmina Burana by Carl Orff
