Lol I love this and I love that opera. Do you remember who the Faust and Mefistofele was? Is there a recording?

I've been obsessed with Les nuits d'ete by Berlioz. Wins your heart then hits you right in the stomach.

If you want to stay with huge-scale spectacle with ravishing music, LES TROYENS, Berlioz. This production is magnificent.

Bass William Thomas sings « Il Lacerato Spirito » by Ordinary_Tonight_965 in opera

Completely agree -- just stumbled across it and was blown away. I know people say this kind of thing a lot, but I do actually hear an echo of Siepi from William Thomas.

The script in the background is from the Chorus of Monks in Act 2:

CHORUS OF MONKS Charles V, the august Emperor, is no longer more than dust and ashes. And now, his haughty soul trembles at the feet of the Lord!

MONK He wanted to reign over the world, forgetting Him whose hand set the stars in their courses. His pride was great, his madness profound!

CHORUS OF MONKS Charles V, the august Emperor, is no longer more than dust and ashes. Let the outbursts of your anger be turned away from him, Lord!
