It's been rough.

Is that the one that has Tacete, ohimè, tacete? I love it so much. It's so delicate and beautiful and at the same time they're basically saying STFU FOR THE LOVE OF GOD the whole time. Cannot get...

My latest guilty pleasure is watching The Real Housewives of Auckland and expecting Natalie to do a brief cameo in every dinner party they have.

Virgínia Rodrigues, the straightest tone in Brazil. Emma Kirkby wishes! :laugh4:

I went to youtube to listen to Mary Schneider yodelling the classics — because who wouldn't? — and I had the biggest laugh of the month. It is perfect. Thank you, Florestan.

What did you think of Mineccia and Pé? I got it but didn't have the chance to listen to it yet.

The happy ending feels very out of place in an otherwise so subtly dark movie, doesn't it? Happens often in the family melodramas that I love, where the happy ending is merely perfunctory. You just...

I wonder what's up with Erato suddenly switching to the German spelling? Up until this month they used only Handel.

Weepy overload for me this week as I try to pitch my research project about the connection between body, voice, opera and cinematic melodrama next Monday.
