Hey, Snow:
The link I gave to download Manon Lescaut is for a compressed lossy file (113.11 MB). Can you download using emule plus? If your PC is set up for compressed APE lossless audio codec, I can give you a link for downloading the whole 2 CD's but the filesize is 464.65 MB.

sana naman manny you can join us next time
Sorry guys, but I don't go out much because of peripheral nerve disorder. I'll just share my musical discoveries here.
Lucio Dalla first came out with his song tribute "Caruso" in 1986 on his album DallAmeriCaruso.
Luciano Pavarotti loved the melody so much he covered it in his 1989 album Tutto Pavarotti. Many other pop artists followed thereafter.
Here is a YouTube clip of Pavarotti singing Lucio Dalla's "Caruso".

Hollywood has never shrank from embellishing a biopic when it deems the subject not dramatic enough to sell the picture. Though in the case of the sanitized Cary Grant starrer Night and Day about composer Cole Porter, they also did not shy away from covering up what was then scandalous behavior of the subject (i.e. drugs and homosexuality). Compare the recent Kevin Kline depiction in De-Lovely, which was rather frank.
This is The Student Prince DVD:
Edmund Purdom lip-synched to the singing voice of Mario Lanza (considered his finest performance in English).
The music was composed by the Hungarian composer Sigmund Romberg.

You may never have heard of Spike Jones, but he was a musical celebrity of a different sort, way back when.
Here is his take on Bizet's Carmen. It's roughly a 3 mb download. Uncompress using WinRAR and you will get an MP3 file. This is only part one of four parts. The original came from a 45 rpm vinyl record (if any of you still know what that is).
Click here to download.
Tell me if you like it.

This is Sumi Jo and Ah-Kyung Lee attempting the same duet:
Methinks, it needs a little more lyricism.

Here's a bit of eye and ear candy for you. But this girl wields a mean Strad (yes, she really plays a 1727 Stradivarius) and will definitely be taken seriously in the league of Anne-Sophie Mutter, one day.

The venue has a bit of historical notoriety.
The Waldbühne, or Forest Theatre, was built, as part of the complex used for the Hitler-era 1936 Summer Olympics, by incorporating the glacial river banks of the Berlin Urstromtal. It is a reproduction of the old 3rd century BC theater of Epidaurus and was then named "Dietrich-Eckart-Bühne" in homage to the Nazi ideologue Dietrich Eckart.
The Berlin Concert involving Domingo, Netrebko and Villazon was held in conjunction with the World Cup football tournament, following a modern tradition of capping a sports event with an operatic performance began by Pavarotti.
End of lecture... heh, heh.

Anna Netrebko is an opera phenomenon of the new millennium. This DVD (done MTV style and originally conceived as a one-hour television special), when first released in Europe in 2004, managed to outsell those from Beyonce and Britney Spears (which tells you something about the cultural and intellectual levels of those Europeans).

La Trebkens is the epitome of class and sophistication.

Sorry to dash everyone's fantasies but La Trebka is very much pregnant by Uruguay-born baritone Erwin Schrott.
Anna shared the open-air stage of the Waldbuhne in Berlin with Placido Domingo and Rolando Villazon in this July 2006 concert released on DVD:
A highlight is Rolando singing Rossini's La Danza and Anna brings the house down when at one point she sings without boosting from any microphone. Wow! (The audience was estimated at 20,000.)
