    • It was good to hear the Carpenter's perform the Bach/Gounod Ave Maria, my favorite one.  I've never cared much for the Schubert one.

    My favorite part of Pagliacci begins at 1:00:00 and ends when the opera does.

    • Here's Justino Diaz performing Iago's Cruel God aria from Verdi's Otello.  Iago is a baritone role, but I think the engineers lowered Diaz's voice for the movie, a Zeffirelli production that came out in about 1982.

    • Someone mentioned Pavarotti.  So I thought I would find his  performance of my favorite Italian song to let you compare it to Carlo Bytti's version, the one I enjoy most/

    Sure, I enjoyed both arias and would have loved have seen him in a live production of Paglicci.  During that opera, I always want to see Canio's face when he sings Vesti la giubba and the scene where he accuses Nedda of cheating on him before he stabs her.  Years ago, when my German friend Hilda talked with me about Kiri Te Kanawa, my friend said, "She can sing.  But she's like a doll.  Wind her and she goes."  So watching a few videos, I saw what Hilda, God rest her soul, meant.

    I always want to see a performance of an emotionally charged aria like Vesti la giubba.

    Thank you. His performance of Vesti la giubba was on YouTube several years ago, but was removed.

    • Arvo Pärt is an Estonian composer of modern music and Nathaniel Dett was a Black Canadian who lived in the earlier half of the 20th century. Neither were ever Catholic but wrote sacred music like they were. It's astounding.
