What is a good opera song that you would reccomend? I am looking for opera songs online and could use help.?

Question

I like a song like Hanbanera from carmen. so if you have any suggestions please suggest.

I am not trying to sing opera, and I am not looking for sheet music, I am looking for music to listen to.

Answer 1

A personal favorite of mine is the duet from the Marriage of Figaro.

Answer 2

If you are a mezzo-soprano, you'd also like Cherubino's songs from the opera "Marriage of Figaro", entitled "Non so piu" and "Voi che sapete".
If you're not sure what voice category you are, it would probably be better to find that out first, and then tailor your search to your needs. Even though you will be able to sing most of the notes written in any song or aria ( with the exception of the very highest or very lowest) knowing where your voice is "at home" will help determine which songs are the best for you.
Singing outside that comfort zone will make itself felt pretty quickly, so if you're not sure, please seek advice before you do yourself any damage.

Answer 3

Finding sheet music online is always a tricky business unless you know where to look. I'd suggest going to a music store or sheetmusicplus.com and buying an anthology of opera songs in your vocal range (they have whole books of songs transposed or written specifically to suit your range) and poking through it with a friend or tutor (plus, they're good things to have on hand). As far as asking for a good opera song, I'm not going to have the best answer for you. If you know any voice or choir teachers, they'd be the best ones to ask. Best of luck to you!
