No worries, others are not to send their stuff in nearliest days neither. Take your time.
Aramis will be able to guide you through the technical side, he did give me some instructions.

Oh no the dreaded *man-flu*. Hope you feel better soon.
I'm sure he's extremely concerned.The world will have to wait for the moment when it will fall in love with Almaviva's stupendous baritone voice.Poor Bryn Terfel, his days are over. He needs to enjoy his lead while he can, and hope that this cold lingers a little longer.

Yes, I can always offer some guidance. But belive me, this is really easy and shouldn't be problematic for any regular PC user.
Well, if he's not, he should be. All his future contracts are in jeopardy, because opera house managers will be dumping him and flocking to me once they hear my rendition of Non pił andrai.I'm sure he's extremely concerned.

OK, brave Almaviva has sent to Aramis his ridiculous mp3 file in which he makes a fool of himself trying to sing La Donna č Mobile in the middle of a bout of the common cold: hoarse, and with a stuffy nose. So my detractors, I actually *can* do better than this, but I thought that if I waited for the cold to go away, I would humiliate too much all the professional singers out there, so I sent it in anyway (and cheated, no sustained high notes, hehehe).
Warning: it *is* bad.
PS - I tried Non pił andrai. Too difficult. Even more embarrassing.Bryn Terfel's contracts are safe for now.

Heee, definitely a lyric fach, good to portray characters so shy that they don't even dare to sing in full dynamic =S
But it's not that bad, at worst you will be second from the bottom, over me.
I'm still learning mine. Wagner is a bit of an ass. A minor 6th followed by a major 6th? Who calls their horse with that?
American scientists proved that such progression fits musical taste of horses. Not back in XIXth century for sure but it only shows how forward-looking Wagner really was.
OK, now the gauntlet has been thrown. I will have to rise up to the challenge with *my* stupendous baritone voice. Maybe dust off "Di Provenza" . . .The world will have to wait for the moment when it will fall in love with Almaviva's stupendous baritone voice.
I too may need some technical advice, though.
Good, good, the more - the better. Sing boldly and send without delay, main libe zenger. If you will have any problems ask for help here.
Hehehe, I "liked" my first post... and Aramis got the honor!

Oh dear, I sing along with my Diana Damrau cds sometimes but I hardly know the words and I don't have a recording without someone else already singing on it. Um hmm maybe I could sing Barbarina's little aria, though I've only heard it a few times. Or maybe some other soubrette aria...Um I'm going to think about it so don't count me in yet!
Only the positive!

You can get the words from the Internet, and usually at least for the main arias you can get a karaoke YouTube to function as your background orchestra. Come on, Adele, if I did it, you can do it!

I love that aria, such exquisite music for a little pin!
