20 years ago today, my wife and myself walked down the isle to this sung by two friends of ours from the philharmonic. Today I sit and listen to this with very mixed feelings, pain of loss as my wife died suddenly two months ago, and yet the joy of the day we married.

Odd isn't it that being normally dressed makes the music more immediate.

Agreed. No distractions of big gowns etc. I found it far easier to concentrate on the music - no distractions.

You're not alone I cried a river. I'm discovering this kind of music. This morning in my car I switched the FM by mistake just to be in shock listening to these beauty, masterpiece or whatever it is! Stunning! I'm already open to take a seat at the next opera and cry again and again. Wow!

they are recording a CD so they have not to be dressed as for a concert - can't you see the microphones ? They never sing with microphones in concert.

If you get a chance, wangle your way into a opera rehearsal. I was a stage manager in opera for a couple of years, and opera rehearsals are fascinating. Very different from theatre. Very chatty, principal singers usually know each other so they catch up and hang. Everyone comes in knowing their part, so it’s about refining the singing to fit the maestro’s vision and learning what the stage director’s wants. All this to say, everyone’s in their everyday clothes, and then they’ll be standing right in front of the stage management table singing an absolutely glorious aria, full voice, right at you. Find someone who knows someone and get thee to a rehearsal!

Wrap up the YouTube binge. You've probably just seen the best thing you're going to see today!

English translation:
Under the thick dome where the white jasmine
With the roses entwined together
On the river bank covered with flowers laughing in the morning
Let us descend together!
Gently floating on its charming risings,
On the river’s current
On the shining waves,
One hand reaches,
Reaches for the bank,
Where the spring sleeps,
And the bird, the bird sings.
Under the thick dome where the white jasmine
Ah! calling us
Together!
Under the thick dome where white jasmine
With the roses entwined together
On the river bank covered with flowers laughing in the morning
Let us descend together!
Gently floating on its charming risings,
On the river’s current
On the shining waves,
One hand reaches,
Reaches for the bank,
Where the spring sleeps,
And the bird, the bird sings
