5) Finally, poke around and see what grabs you and what doesn't. No use suffering through 5+ hours of Siegfried by #Wagner if it just ain't working. But if you can find something, anything, you like, you may be surprised at the riches it has to offer. #opera #ClassicalMusic #WorldOperaDay
8/8
4) If you feel like biting off a little more, go with a full #opera or selections from a single opera. I have a CD with selections from #DonGiovanni by #Mozart that thrills every time.

For a taste, here's one of my favorite things on the internet:

3) My entry point to Italian #opera was a collection of performances by soprano #MariaCallas. Selections, especially of arias, are easier for our pop music brains to grasp. #WorldOperaDay
The collection that hooked me was La Divina: www.discogs.com/master/54246...

And at the end when Arthur tasks Percival with returning Excalibur to the Lady in the Lake:

2) If you're wary of the warbling, start with orchestral selections like a collection of overtures by Richard #Wagner. Everyone knows his music from Apocalypse Now, but it's also in Excalibur. Like when Lancelot meets Guinevere: #WorldOperaDay

1) First, if you've ever heard #opera that caught your attention, in a movie or wherever, start there. For example, if you've watched the #TomHanks and #DenzelWashington movie Philadelphia, it's easy to look that up. #WorldOperaDay

Back when I was just a young apprentice, I was in the chorus for this opera, and the apprentices always would stand in the wings when the tenor sang this aria. It’s so enchanting. Nice rendition here. youtu.be/luXkBdICQAc?...

Happy #WorldOperaDay! Thinking about this day reminded me of the first time I was bitten by the "opera bug". I hope everyone spends today enjoying at least a little bit opera, and reflecting on how lucky we all are to have been bitten by opera bugs 🙏
