presentation and asking help

Dear friends,
Dear Frederik Magle,our host,
I am both grateful and honored to have been accepted as member of this
forum. I am 73+ years of age (old or young- we will see it) living in Cluj Romania.
My wife Judith and me love very much music, especially opera.
In order to express my great love to opera I wrote this essay:

http://egooutpeters.blogspot.com/2011/03/explaining-opera-music-of-all-noises.html

If you will read you will see that I have conceived it in comditions of extreme stress; therefore the list of opera arias chosen is far from being perfect. I dare
to ask for your help- suggestions for an improved list of arias.
I think my essay is very good to celebrate April 1, an important day, isn't it?
Best wishes and thanks, Peter

welcome to the forums. I am sure you will enjoy your time spent here. We have a couple of forums devoted to opera area of music. I too enjoy opera and have a number of arias I am fond of as well as we all do it seems.

Hello Peter and welcome to the forum. Trust you will enjoy your time here.

But can you help me with the best arias for my essay?
Have you seen/read it?

Are you serious??

Yes, I am extremely serious -see the definition of serious in my blog EgoOut.
And yes, I need a list of the say 25 mots beautil, moving opera arias - with which you can convince somebody absolutely ignorant that Opera music is a cultural treasure.

excuse the typos I have problems with my vision snd 3 grandchildren dancing around

Hello Peter

Welcome to the forum, glad you could join us.

I will have a read of your blog a bit later.

Dear Margaret,
I am honored by your visit at the blog. Actually this is my first posting here re.music but perhssd you will like the Septoes and the concept of Ego Out snd..
The posting re Opera is a joke, but I seriously need help for the selection of the most beautiful opera arias- in the context of the story.
Peter

Thank you- in some way the Hans Sachs monologue did not come in my mind in those circumstances. I thought about Tannhauser, but eventually I chose Lohengrin.
Had no time to read then the monthly issue of the Wagnermania- excellent database.

Hello Peter,

Welcome to a most great site with fab members all.

Cheers,
