Opera. Stick your favorite, please!

Postby twistermind » Sat Dec 12, 2009 4:27 pm

I have to confess that I always loved classical music, but I was not a fan of Opera, however, one beign in this forum is a marvellous lover of Opera and I´m beginning to like them.
The following track by Giacomo Puccini "O mio babbino Caro" is simply MARVELLOUS. I have been listening to different performances but the one by Lesley Garrett makes me fly.
I hope you all like it.
And if you want to stick more, I will be greatly grateful.

That was very nice. You and I must go to an opera together some day en el futuro.

This barcarolle is from The Tales of Hoffmann opera.

Our friend Parador is the one who knows most in relation to opera. It´s a pity that he can´t be in this thread with us.
I´m learning a lot, you know that when I have an obsession with something, I don´t stop.

One more:
Composer: Vincenzo Bellini
Opera: Norma
Part: Casta Diva
Performance by Maria Callas, again.

Hi Twister! I was just browsing the forums and when I saw your thread the first thing that popped in my head was Maria Callas' rendition of Casta Diva from Norma... You beat me to it, BIG LOLS! I love her. She is the best.

I can't really think of any others offhand, but if I do I'll link you up. Cool thread.

Is Maria Callas single?; does she like Irish men? :P
