- Dissecting... Pourquoi me réveiller?
Send us Fan Mail
In this season we are reviewing the most popular arias of all times. Who doesn't know this aria from Werther by Maestro Jules Massenet?
By far, one of the most beautiful melodies and maybe saddest ever written for the tenor voice. There is no lyrical tenor who doesn't have it in his repertoire.
In this season we talk about the author, and we analyze the aria from a technical vocal point of view as well as the interpretation based on the situation the character is going through.

Is information provided by ChatGPT 3.5 worth reading it if I wanted to learn more about a given opera composer?
In the quest of answering it, this series will ask ChatGPT to provide info that when scarce, vague, just a platitude or simply wrong, new questions will be asked to guide the IA to provide more relevant information. Hope this technology does not get old too soon!!!

https://t.me/OperaWeLoveSinging59 min - Maria Callas Centennial - time travelling to 1950 Mexico City: The Expectation
Send us Fan Mail
For this trip we need to put apart many things that we know now. We are travelling to a time where Maria Callas whas Meneghini Callas, she was not La Divina. She was not as famous as she came to be years later. We have no mobile telephones, meaning there is no way to learn immediately news from all other places almost at the time they are happening. This program is built with a number of sources to provide a bigger picture of what was actually happening back then.
This program, this first travel in time is: The expectation
You can always check our page in Ko-fi where we are posting more content related to the program and ourselves. We are very interested in learning from you:https://ko-fi.com/operawelovesinging

In this season we are reviewing the most popular arias of all times. Who doesn't know this aria from Giani Schicchi by Maestro Puccini?
By far, one of the most beautiful melodies ever written for the soprano voice. There is no soprano who doesn't have it in her repertoire.
In this season we talk about the author, and we analyze the aria from a technical vocal point of view as well as the interpretation based on the situation the character is going through.

Send us Fan Mail
Nerves can make the life oa singer miserable. The psychological strenght and balance are factors playing here. Others are self-inflicted nerves that result from a poor processing of putting together a recital.

Send us Fan Mail
Author of the Callas Imprint - Sophia Lambton joins us to talk about this book she released this December 2023.
A lot has been said about Maria Callas, many authors have recycled the information on her, a good number of those books are poor in content and rich in speculations. Many of those books also are rich in sharing personal anecdotes of hers with the only purpose of making lots of money. Because, besides being a great artist, she was a money-making machine, which many continue to exploit in so many ways.
But Maria was a human like everyone else, with faults and qualities that are maximized in one way or another to prove one's personal perspective on hers.
We invite you to this conversation on. Should you feel interested in getting a copy of the book:

About Opera - We love singing
From the publisher's feed
Music, and more particularly singing is always with us. A certain day we may find ourselves moody and with a melody from La forza del destino playing over and over again in our head. Or maybe we…
feel like a superhero as we've doing great at work and then we feel like Calaf solving the 3 riddles that Turandot has proposed. First, we would like to share that this is not a place for the platitudes that are everywhere, telling my favorite singer is always the greatest in everything he's sung; and at the same time, we avoid being one of those toxic places where there's endless criticism around the minimum error of a given singer. We need more places where we can be respectful and still express our differences, as art is perception and no one perceives art equally to one another. Our second proposal is to come and share, both Katia and I are pretty sure there are a million questions you have always asked yourself about singing and as singers are sometimes not the most approachable people, well we hope can answers some of those questions!!
