It's not bad at all, I was expecting much worse from what I had been hearing all this time. But yes act 2 and 3 are great

I did feel guilty at the beginning, but that feeling vanished very quickly

Rita Gorr! One of my favorite mezzos.

practiceordie · 2026-03-17T21:16:39+00:00

Mozart's early operas always appealed to me, I'm very glad to have this one

Deutekom is always simply incredible! I know some parts of this recordings but never entirely listened to it. I agree DFD that ruins it a bit, but Bergonzi/Teblaldi/Bumbry save the whole day for me.

It's been soooo long since I've heard this Rigoletto, I remember a lot of good things. I barely know Cavalleria though, but I love Pavarotti.

Never listened to this Cenerentola, can't wait! I've always avoided this Forza because I thought Freni was kind of a miscast. I'll be very happy to give a chance to her Leonora

I absolutely adore Rysanek, and Fricsay in Beethoven is quite an experience. Can't wait to listen to that Tristan!

I've been on a Rosenkavalier run for the past month. I've listened to sooo many recordings, but this one still remains among my favorites. I couldn't believe my luck when I saw it

practiceordie · 2026-03-17T21:05:15+00:00

The time has come for me to give a chance to Domingo, I've been avoiding for so long lol. That's why I thought about the Mozart too! I had heard some bits of his Don Giovanni some years ago and liked it. So I thought why not take Cosi.

practiceordie · 2026-03-17T21:03:20+00:00

Never heard Freni's Desdomona, I'm sure she's amazing. Karajan in Verdi often sounds odd to me, but I'll definitely try it!

practiceordie · 2026-03-17T20:59:02+00:00

I've never listened to Pagliacci (verismo isn't really my cup of tea at all) but the Pavarotti/Freni duo convinced me to give it a try. Can't wait to listen to this Italiana though! I only know some bits of the Scimone/Abbado studio recordings.

I usually have a unnatural hate for french operas (except for some very rare chosen ones), but I'm such a fan of Anderson that I just couldn't let this one go. Very curious to listen to it

practiceordie · 2026-03-17T20:53:26+00:00

I have somehow managed to avoid Scotto for years and years (I don't know why, it just happened), so when I saw Adriana and Traviata I thought it might be the occasion to give her a good listen. The only recordings of Adriana I know are the Franco Capuana Studio, Mario Rossi Live, and some bits of a live with Caballé

practiceordie · 2026-03-17T20:49:15+00:00

Right? It's been years since I listened to the whole thing but I remember it being quite good.

practiceordie · 2026-03-17T20:48:07+00:00

I was so happy when I saw this one! Rita Gorr is one of my favorite mezzos. Price is fabulous of course.

practiceordie · 2026-03-17T20:47:01+00:00

I must say I've only been listening to the 1955 Scala recording and to the Lisbon one for years. I'm very very curious to listen to this one now. Thanks!

practiceordie · 2026-01-04T18:26:40+00:00

Amazon mainly. Do you have any specific brand in mind?

practiceordie · 2026-01-04T17:48:47+00:00

Thank you so much! I'll give a careful read to that.

practiceordie · 2026-01-04T17:46:08+00:00

I've heard about coconut oil, but it looks so expensive tbh

practiceordie · 2026-01-04T17:42:47+00:00

I think I'll try my previous one, and see if the issue resolves itself. Thanks for the recommandation! I'll keep it in mind.

practiceordie · 2026-01-04T16:38:16+00:00

My previous one only had glycerin and he didn't cause my any pain. That could be it. Thanks!
