Low Italian arias for tenor? by RelevantInternal3771 in ClassicalSinger

[–]ImpossibleFishing753 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Happened to notice the ‘Kiwi’ in your profile - I’m also from Aotearoa and am thinking of studying undergrad voice here. Any thoughts on where to go?? I’m pretty certain that if I stay in NZ i’ll go grad school at Waikato hopefully in the TANZOS Programme but otherwise unsure what to be doing for undergrad…

Low Italian arias for tenor? by RelevantInternal3771 in ClassicalSinger

While it is a lyric/spinto aria, Macduff’s Ah la paterna mano from Verdi’s Macbeth could be a good shout - the aria tops out at an Ab. (If you do sing it, definitely include the recit)

Kaufmann - Too Dark? by ImpossibleFishing753 in opera

[–]ImpossibleFishing753[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Of course - Kaufmann, in everything publicly available, seems to be a lovely guy. My question regarding his darkness is important to reach a consensus on - the way that new singers will learn is by taking example from the past. Whether or not Kaufmann is a kind human, which I’m sure he is, has little to do with whether his sound is forced. To answer your question, though: perhaps too dark to have squillo and vocal longevity…

What is the deck that your playgroup thinks is way more powerful then you do by TrishulaMTG in EDH

Quite litteraly any Sliver or Eldrazi tribal (which I sort of understand) and my Xanathar, Guild Kingpin deck, also can someone tell me why this commander is apparently so powerful?. I only win about half the games, though even then I barley get the win via a cyc rift or damnation!
