Wow! That'll be good!

No listing of the music for the 40th Celebration.

Are you going to the performance Mahler's 8th Symphony?

Did you go the performance of Handel?

:approve: Seems very nice...I am sure you will enjoy it...


I went to see the Requiem several times in Brussels, Antwerp and Paris. Did you know that in the Opera de Paris, Mozart is the composer whose head is central, just above the entrance ?

I always wanted an appartement here...But i think i will need to acquire some more money :rolleyes: :-p

Tell you what...For a few years i always thought that the Confutatis was the most beautiful part of the Mozart Requiem, together with the Introibo ofcourse. But, lately, i really like the Lacrimosa more. It's perhaps less known and less spectacular but it is so gentil and honest. At least in my opinion.

Again, enjoy

Probably, i am going to visit Vienna within a few weeks and i would really like to attend a version of Die Zauberflöte there, but most concerts are already sold out.

regards

marlon

Some of the most beautiful soprano arias ever written in that opera.
"Voi che sapete"
"Dove sono i bei momenti"
