Opera

[Turandot]

anyone? It gets a bad reputation from a lot of people in america but I find good ones, done well by good companies quite enthralling.

I get tired of her cramming Toni Morrison novels down our throat. And I hate her for turning loose Dr. Phil on the world.

I have an album of arias put to trance/trip hop beats. It has a sound like no other album, I'm slowly working my way up to the real stuff.

Not surprising, considering your screen name. ;)

It took me a while to really get a taste for opera, but now it's carved out a good space in my playlist. Luciano Pavarotti's "My Favorite..." collection helped put me over the top and I recommend it to anyone who just wants to dabble in opera before going in head first - "My Favorite Showstoppers" is probably the best of the bunch.

Dyvel, what's the name of the album you mentioned? It sounds interesting.

I dated this girl from Italy and she turned me on to "Tosca" (or "La Tosca", as she said). So it is my favorite for sentimental reasons. "Carmen" is nice as well. :)

Since my mum's Welsh, I'm bound to like Opera, especially the ones by Verdi and Puccini.
