Opera constitutes in its real essence a versatile spectacle. The art of singing is an indissoluble aspect of its language. As a natural way for the expression of feelings and moods, singing has been taken to the point of beeing the quintessence of the opera through the inspiration of great composers from different times in history. And these genuine stars of the opera, the singers, have kept and still keep alive the flame of this form of art. Sopranos, mezzosopranos, altos, among the female voices, tenors, baritones and basses, among the male ones; all of them seem to be indispensable, and it will always be like that as long as opera is alive with its special magic, with its particular and unique world, and with the mystical environment that the great houses of opera provide all around the globe and the wholehearted support that audiences give, helping the opera to endure and keep it in force.
It is the intention of Opera Forum to include all those heroes and heroines of the opera from all times. Those who really made history, many times generating prototypes, becoming icons in their respective tesituras, and fixing up that condition of divos and divas.
Opera Forum is not restricted just to the singers, but includes in here all the elements that are intimately related to the world of opera: the composers, the conductors, the great houses of opera, the sotries, the past and current productions... All of them are part of this site, which hopefuly with the help of the readers will grow.

Hello, I'm about buying tickets for Turandot in Teatre liceu for June/09 and I was wondering which soprano is best Maria Guleghina, Georgina Lukàcs or Anna Shafajinskaia. I'd prefer Caballe+Pavaroti but seems it's not possible anymore.
I'm going to love this blog. I am new fan of opera. There are still many things that I have to learn about it. But I really don't care that much of learning technically. What matters most to me is that I've found out about it, its music and the joy it's given when listening to it. For three years now, not a single day has passed without listening to my favorite arias. Callas, Pavarotti, Domingo, Bocelli, Caruso will be forever my favorite artists...
Hola Nacho, enhorabuena por el blog y bienvenido a esta pequeña, y no tan pequeña, comunidad de amantes de la música lírica.
