Scant days ago I was telling someone this trio is among the very highlights of the operatic literature, and here it is in all its...in all its...uh, I can't find quite the right word.

Aren't you ever so sweet for showing us this and boosting my self-confidence about my own Fiordiligi.
Manprano: I have been known to sing bits of Dorabella down an octave. (I would sing it falsetto but my falsetto is abbreviated and ugly.) All we need is an Alfonso...

Wow - at least they had fun. I think this kid's Fiordiligi was probably better than anything Gruber has sung.

Is this from the Dreamgirls DVD (deleted scenes)?
The word for that is adorrible.
FTW!
I actually can't stop watching it.
Good that they could get late-career Hans Hotter in to do the baritone part.
The one in the middle is clearly the breakaway star -- he needs to cut himself loose, find a good producer, and cut a solo album.
everytime I hear this trio I am filled with emotion... this time around I'm just not sure what the emotion is!
Well, at least I can say...when I'm bitching about how hard this is to sing...that it could always be [much] worse!
