Summary of This Book
OperAria is an anthology of lyric repertoire designed as a structured guide for today's singers, especially with auditions in mind. The book offers a rigorous organization of opera arias according to vocal criteria directly applicable in singing lessons and casting preparation: range, tessitura, specific vocal characteristics, and aria type. This approach helps quickly identify pieces suited to your profile while building a coherent repertoire, regardless of vocal fach.
Beyond classification by singing criteria, OperAria incorporates essential aspects of theatrical practice: indications on style, era, role typology, and national origin to enhance the artistic relevance of aria selection. Each entry is accompanied by commentary and practical information: data on the composer, librettist, and work; register indications; mentions of possible versions or casts; as well as a brief synopsis clarifying the dramatic situation and the aria's stage "constellation" within the opera's plot. All of this is complemented by an evaluation from the singer's perspective, useful for anticipating breathing challenges, line, style, and acting considerations.
To support language and diction work, the book includes a "phonetic assistant" CD: aria texts are available in audio format (mp3) spoken by native speakers, and in text files (pdf) with the original text as well as German and English translations. A real asset for improving pronunciation accuracy, ensuring intelligibility, and preparing your auditions and rehearsals more effectively.
