Antonio Pappano via Rai

Thanks ThePrestigiosoGaston for the videos!!!!

I admit, i am forever fascinated with Pappano's music and his talent for communication :-)

It's a marvellous season end at the ROH, Werther, Macbeth, Tosca, all of which he's made me listen to in new and always touching ways and i am very much looking forward to hearing him again with Santa Cecilia at the Proms with Rossini's Tell.

Listen to what the Maestro has to say :-)))

When singing comes from the heart....

I don't like crossovers, i'm not really into musicals, but i dare you to say this has not touched every fibre of your heart! And he's got the most smooth and beautiful natural voice :-)

Precious little pearls from an evening of song i was lucky enough to hear live :-)

Especially for a dear friend, looking forward to enjoying one of these evenings together in a few months time :-)

And this was the last encore of the evening, gently sending us home :-)))

Enjoy everyone!

Thanks very much theflossie100 for sharing!!

And not at all meaning to spoil the "spleen"... but if you haven't seen and heard it yet, RUN, RUN RUN!!! While it's still on, it's a gorgeous night at the opera!! I've seen it 3 times and could do with 3 more!
