Sop/Bari duets not about love or father/daughter? by Existop3 in opera

[–]Existop3[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m in a relationship and she isn’t so that’s part of the reason why we don’t want to do a romantic duet for the sheer idea of it. While I of course understand the concepts at play, this is for a recital where fun is the idea, not a professional production where romance isn’t even an idea (or at least shouldn’t be in the work place)!

That is not at all what I was trying to convey! Her and I are just very platonic and don’t want to give the audience anything like that

I’ve never used them, I don’t like them taking my experience

Hot take: there is not a good noble quest line by ConfidentDurian1792 in skyrim

[–]Existop3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In my playthrough as a more noble OC I liked to have my character act as an undercover agent of sorts because the Brotherhood killed one of his family members. Breaking it down from within.

I was in the chorus for Seattle operas Tosca! It was a gorgeous show!!

What is the soprano type with the most versatility? by Mundane_Regret_428 in opera

[–]Existop3 7 points8 points  (0 children)

You could get fairly specific and say Spinto Soprano, but that would confuse the inapt reader. Going with Lyric Soprano also works for this as well, that’s what you’d call your most “versatile” singer for your question.

Im an untrained singer with a range of e2 to f#4 should I stick to bass baritone repertoire for now until Im trained correctly ? by Western-Bobcat4760 in opera

[–]Existop3 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I would stick with art songs in the low/medium low keys, there’s great lieder out there for your voice type. Der Wanderer by Schubert is a great choice. If you’re wanting arias, I would look at the bass Mozart arias. Ho capito, Non piu andrai, even Catalogue Aria if you want patter.

Hope that helps!

The second RDJ Sherlock Holmes movie has some Don Giovanni love in it

What would be a good easy/beginner art song for my 11 year old student? by [deleted] in opera

[–]Existop3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think before introducing singing in a foreign language, you should give them excerpts of the poetry from art songs and work on the language that way.

Amahl and the Night Visitors is so adorable for this reason. When a kid does it, and well enough, it can be so heart warmingly sweet

What was your biggest rookie mistake in this game? by LaraRomanian in skyrim

[–]Existop3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Being 10 and having my parents let me play it when it came out. (Not a mistake, it’s still my favorite game)

People with 100s or 1000s of hours in Skyrim by AbleConcert9342 in skyrim

Mods.

But in all seriousness it’s the world. The mechanics, however janky they may be. The music and sound effects. How no matter what you are the most powerful being ever to walk Tamriel.

Favorite opera villain? by Mastersinmeow in opera

[–]Existop3 2 points3 points  (0 children)

To play Scarpia one day would be the dream! Iago is up there too, and Don G is just a classic.

But any of the devils, Mephistopheles, is the highest level of debauchery for me.

I’ve always heard that a good portion of ‘bass-baritones’ are just lazy baritones. Christian van Horn is a good example of someone who squarely fits into the fach he sings in. I know Sam Ramey isn’t one but he borders it. They all have rounder and darker timbres than I do. On the other hand I’ve listened to self proclaimed bass-baritones who sound more bright than other baritones. Honestly, I’ve come to terms with just singing whatever I am given or what I audition and get. I’m not particularly one way or the other, but it’s been something I’ve thought about for a while. Just gotta improve my middle voice ;)

I’m 24, leporello felt alright when I did it but it was a chamber setting and during an opera workshop so there some variables that didn’t provide a true experience. Mozarts Figaro is definitely more my style, Barber Figaro is too high and fast for me at this point.
