I can't make a decision on 5 operas, so I have picked my 4 favorite composers of operas and their works that I enjoy most:
1. Puccini: Tosca; La Boheme
2. Verdi: La Traviata; Rigoletto; Aida
3. Mozart: Don Giovanni; The Marriage of Figaro
4. Wagner: Gotterdammerung (or the entire Ring Cycle if you consider it as a single work); Tristan und Isolde
