Talking about beautiful soprano solos, I'll post all the soprano parts from Carmina Burana sung by Agnes Molner standing outside in the wind, looking lovely.
Let's talk music, no genre boundaries
This is an offshoot of the jazz thread. I and others found that we could not talk about jazz without discussing other musical genres, as well as the philosophy of music. So, this is a thread in which people can suggest good music of all genres, and spout off your feelings about music itself.

Delighted to see people talking about Kiri Te Kanawa. I love her voice. Every voice is totally unique ... the timbre of hers is wonderful. Her interpretation of Richard Strauss' 4 final songs is easily the best of the dozens I've heard (probably own more than dozen, between LP and CD): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lzrbd6uuunA&list=PL0iOugSvrIBy65Uho2Kl7gT-JwcHyQCf1&index=1 |
@audio-b-dog, you are so right about Bach's Mass in B Minor. It's magnificent music. So much of what the man composed is magnificent. Are you hip to Haydn's "The Creation"? I love that oratorio. The man was playing his A game when he wrote that. I have four or five versions, but one stands far above the others. |
