Summary of This Score
This collection brings together a selection of major opera arias for low voices, covering a very wide stylistic spectrum, from bel canto to German Romanticism, and up to the great Russian epics. You will find famous pieces such as "La calunnia" (Rossini), "Vecchia zimarra" (Puccini), the Catalogue aria "Madamina! il catalogo è questo" (Mozart), as well as several arias by Verdi (including "Come dal ciel precipita" and "Il lacerato spirito") and Wagner (for example "O Isis und Osiris," here an essential landmark of the Mozartian tradition for bass, alongside the great Wagnerian monologues). The selection also includes less common but highly instructive arias from operas by Cornelius, Flotow, Nicolai, Halévy, Meyerbeer, Thomas, Massenet, and Dargomyzhsky, perfect for enriching a program and standing out. Thanks to the alternation between character arias, narratives, and more introspective scenes, this score is an excellent working tool to develop projection, timbre color, legato, articulation, and text interpretation, while exploring emblematic roles from the opera repertoire.
