Give to your local...

Opera. Ya that's right. Give to your local opera. Some who have never taken the time to appreciate opera, might think its stuffy and boring. I love punk, death metal, classic rock, classical, and opera. The thing I like about opera, is that they are all pretty much the same. Some one is always trying to get laid, someone is getting laid, someone is being cheated on, some one is heartbroken, and someone dies. In every opera, you will experience many many extreme emotions.

Any way, I thought I would link a few of my favorites. Great pieces of work. Hopefully you will enjoy them..

Ai Giochi Addio From Romeo and Juliet:


Habanera from Bizet's "Carmen"


La donna e mobile from Verdi's "Rigoletto". I have blogged about this one before.


Che Gelida Manina from Puccini's La Boheme


Sull'aria from Mozart's "The Marriage of Figaro".

You may remember this from "The Shawshank Redemption": http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aYFj9hZsnhs&feature=related

From Karl Orff's cantata Carmina Burana "O Fortuna"


Mozart's last work, Requiem Mass in D Minor
