Rimsky-Korsakov on #OperaOn3 "Christmas Eve", which I've enjoyed more than I expected but damn it's long. I've thought it was endeing twice now and they're definitely got their fifteenth wind.

The #documentary The Lake / nx̌aʔx̌aʔitkʷ is about two women, a classical singer and an Elder from West Bank First Nation, who collaborated to get a long-forgotten opera that was stored away and never realized finally to the stage.
Twists, turns and fate brought Heather Pawsey and Delphine Derickson together. The Lake / nx̌aʔx̌aʔitkʷ is about how two people from different cultures were able to create something beautiful.
It's 100 years since the birth of Maria Callas — La Divina. The BBC looks at her brief but brilliant career, and how she became the archetypical diva: Phenomenally talented, with a high-maintenance reputation, and subjected to vast amounts of public scrutiny, censure and cruelty.
@FredReibell I wish Mr Gardiner was offered a studio recording of les Troyens with that brilliant cast that was Ms Graham and Antonacci and Mr Kunde, Tezier and Naouri! I was at the premier at the Châtelet and it was mesmerizing. All in their prime ! #opera#classicalmusic#Berlioz
I had a soundcloud for a while, but never really did anything with it. Today I needed to send some music to someone, and email wouldn’t have worked for some reason. So, here it is, my first ever track on soundcloud:
«Misera, dove son!»
It’s a recitative and aria scene from Pietro Metastasio's libretto to Ezio, which has been set to music by many composers, and this is Mozart’s!
I got my Spotify wrapped recently and it was almost identical to 2022 (a year of lazy listening) and completely lacking some of my most favourite genres.
So, if you have the time, I'd love some suggestions of Classical music to listen to. Old, new, opera, just anything you enjoy. Playlists welcome too.
Someone has recently turned me onto opera. I adore classical music but, for whatever silly reason, never dove into opera until now. Found myself moved by this one. #music #opera
