I was lucky enough to live in London whilst still childless and my first wife and I were able to go to Covent Garden and various other venues to watch live opera and ballet quite often. My personal favourite that I think is the most emotionally charged aria is ‘Chella mi creda libero e lontano’ or ‘Let her believe I’m far away and free.’ Ramerrez is about to be hanged and is singing this to the officials in the hopes his girl never finds out his true fate. It has a real punch to it.snafuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07588812293454033077noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6520893128143413982.post-34466917983136665352012-10-24T00:00:11.978-07:002012-10-24T00:00:11.978-07:00Hello Chris.

I didn't grow up loving it, but all the more pleasure now :) I really enjoyed this post. Apart from the beautiful tenderness of the music, I loved the close-ups of Sir Georg Solti conducting not only with his hands but with his eyes.
