NOW PLAYING

I'm working through a 4-LP box set of music by the master of Italian opera, Guiseppe Verdi. Currently listening to "Ma dall'arido stelo divulsa" from Act 2 of Un Ballo in Maschera (1857). You've heard about Maschera, right? It's that horrible wasteland the locals call "Massachusetts".
 
"Solenne in quest'ora" from Act 3 of La Forza del Destino (1862), sung by Placido Domingo. In this aria, a dying man asks his best friend: "Burn my letters when I die." Agreeing on this, the two men sing a duet.

Just in case you thought "delete my online history when I die, bro" happened with the internet. Nope, we're all worried about our families finding our dirt.
 
I'm listening to the climax of Act 2 from Aida (1871) now. The orchestrations are beautiful. No wonder they made me practice this stuff back in conservatory.
 
Amazing instrumental music. I liked the album. Thank you. Very good musicians. I liked the guitar tone .
What’s yours?
I love the great technic of musicians. The songs are very melodic and so heavy at the same. Great riffing and the rhythm section is very efficient. My favorite song is "Entity". 8 minutes of pure prog metal.
